Parmigiano Reggiano Vacche Rosse
|
|
| The "Vacche Rosse" cows, also referred to as "Razza Reggiana", produce much lower milk yields than the Holstein and Fresian cross, Risona Italiana" those are the primary producers of Parmigiano. The protein content of the "Vacche Rosse" is said to be higher, producing a richer, fuller cheese. The color shows that tendency, a buttery yellow in tone. When young it is fruity and mild and the cheese could certainly age as long as 5 years. This makes a great artisan additional to a Parmigiano selection. |
