$689.39
$5.74 – 100 gr
Gorgonzola piccante DOP cheese is produced in Lombardia and Piedmont.
Its production starts off like most cheeses–rennet is added to milk, which reacts and creates curds and whey. However, to make gorgonzola one extra-special ingredient is added: Penicillium glaucum, a mold! It has a strong taste with robust traces of penicillin.
It is usually paired with full bodied, aged, red wines, sweet and liqueur wines, and rum. Hot Italian fruit chutney, red onion preserves. Celery stalk, rye bread and polenta (a boiled cornmeal).
This is a pre-order cheese and waiting period to receive it is approximately 2 weeks.
