The delicious Italian cheese has a very different taste from our Bulgarian cheese. It is advisable to buy a piece of parmesan to grate just before adding it to a dish, sauce, salad, etc. In this way you will be able to fully enjoy its taste and feel its superb aroma.
Parmesan is often used as an addition to spaghetti, risotto, various soups, salads. In Italy, cheese is combined with fruit - most often figs and pears. Another way Italians eat parmesan is as a table cheese - they combine it with delicious crispy bread.
If you want to consume parmesan with wine, be sure to choose red. Suitable for wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot noir, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Chianti Classico, Rioja and others.
When served with wine or bread, the cheese is cut into thin slices. Served in this way, Italian cheese, which is popular all over the world, can also be consumed with fruit or jam.
If you want to add it to pasta or to a salad (whether fruit or vegetable), the parmesan must be grated. Very often Italian cheese is used to season various types of pasta, meat.
When served with soup, risotto, pasta, the parmesan is grated on the dish. Italian cheese is a main part of the popular pesto sauce. The sauce is based on basil, olive oil and cheese - the classic version of Pesto alla Genovese is made with pecorino cheese, but there are many recipes in which pecorino is replaced with parmesan or grana padano.
We offer you a recipe for the popular pesto sauce - for it you will need about 60 g of basil, 3-4 cloves of garlic, 100 g of pine nuts and Parmesan, 200 ml of olive oil and spices - salt and a little black pepper.
Using a blender, grind the pine nuts and basil, then add the garlic cloves, beat again and when the mixture is even, pour a little olive oil. Stir, salt, add black pepper and finally pour the Parmesan cheese.
If you wish, make the sauce in a mortar - for this purpose you need to grind the basil leaves perfectly, the technology is still the same. Store in the refrigerator and season with it pizzas, meat, salads.
