Italian Provolone Cheese 1kg
Brand: Auricchio
This cow's milk cheese is found in virtually every
Italian home. Auricchio provolone has a succulent butter flavour
which is mildly nutty with a satisfying smooth and salty bite. In
1877, in San Giuseppe Vesuviano near Naples, a company named
'Auricchio' was founded by Gennaro Auricchio. Gennaro is also the
inventor of the special rennet which gives Auricchio provolone its
unique flavour. Auricchio provolone gained fame quickly and by the
end of the 19th century, the surname of its producer had become a
byword for the cheese itself. Provolone derives its name from the
Neapolitan words 'Prova' or 'Provola', which mean globe shaped.
Provolone is created in a variety of globe-like shapes in a range
of sizes. Provolone is a great every day cheese and perfect for
antipasti platters served alongside olives, spicy dips and
peppers.
