How it's made | First of all, milk is pasteurized at a temperature of about 70°C (158°F) and then milk enzymes and calf rennet are added. Once it is coagulated, curdling takes place until the curd reaches the size of a sweet corn seed. Afterwards the texture is separated from the whey and laid in moulds. Texture rests in special warm rooms where it can reach optimal PH levels. |

Combinations
We suggest to enjoy this cheese on its own; but it is also excellent with cured meat like Finocchiona or just with a bit of honey. To be paired with Morellino di Scansano.
