Faithful to their own Friulian land and its products, once they refined their expertise, they dedicated themselves to the world of dairy and its products, among which Montasio stands out. Montasio D.O.P is a mountain cheese, part of the classic Friulian cheeses, and it surprises with its sweet and genuine character. Made with cow's milk from the DOP production area, its flavour changes depending on the ageing. The flavour varies depending on the ageing: when fresh it is sweet and delicate, with buttery notes. Its paste is white and compact with a characteristic even eye formation and a smooth, elastic rind. Cheese made exclusively from cow's milk, full-fat, with a minimum short ageing of 60 days (the fresh type), semi-hard paste. Montasio DOP keeps well wrapped in a cloth and stored in the least cold compartment of the fridge. How to enjoy it: Use it to prepare lasagne with radicchio and Montasio. Sliced and served with homemade bread. With a nice glass of young red wine, not too full-bodied. Ideal with asparagus or bitter greens and with Friulian salame!
