What is Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese DOP?
Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese DOP is a classic, Italian cheese made from the milk of grass-fed cows. It comes from the Emilia-Romagna region and is considered to be one of the world's oldest and most famous cheeses. DOP stands for "Denominazione di Origine Protetta", which means "Protected Designation of Origin".
What makes Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese DOP unique?
Unlike other cheeses, Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese DOP has to pass a strict quality control process to earn its name. It must be made from specific cows, in a specific region of Italy, and with a specific method. The cows must only be fed with grass or hay, and the cheese must be aged for at least 24 months. The result is a nutty, rich flavour with a distinct texture that makes it perfect for grating over pasta, vegetables, and soups.
