{"product_id":"parmigiano-reggiano-cheese","title":"Parmigiano-Reggiano","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"The King\" is a coveted title claimed by a handful of cheeses and their fans – Stilton, Beaufort, Comte – but even these must tip their hat to Parmigiano-Reggiano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItaly’s most famous cheese is also one of its oldest traditions, with a recipe that’s centuries old and highly regulated for quality and consistency. Even among Reggianos, ours is well ahead of the pack. For 5 generations the producing family has hand-selected wheels of Parmigiano-Reggiano direct from the producers and matured the cheese in their own vaults with great care. Aged for a minimum of two summers, the complexity of the grass-fed milk concentrates into deep, nutty and sweet flavors in the end product. Our Parmigiano-Reggiano retains a springiness at 24 months that’s rare in a cheese aged so long. This moisture gives these wheels a slightly softer paste than most of the same age, still achieving the high peaks of flavor that we look for without becoming over-dry and waxy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps the most versatile and satisfying cheese we’ve ever met. Our favorite way to enjoy Parmigiano-Reggiano is next to a glass of rich, complex, earthy red wine like Barolo or Barbaresco; these wines benefit from the nuttiness and low acidity of the cheese and together they truly sing for one another. Although in the U.S. most Parmigiano-Reggiano is used for cooking, it is a fantastic table cheese that's low-fuss and delicious - great for cheese plates or a snack for a long hike. In the kitchen, try it grated over roasted asparagus or fresh pasta tossed with your favorite olive oil. Simply the best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatured in these recipes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/blog.markethallfoods.mom\/recipes\/item\/bucatini-all-amatriciana\" title=\"Bucatini all'Amatriciana Recipe\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBucatini all'Amatriciana\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/blog.markethallfoods.mom\/recipes\/salads-dressings\/item\/caesar-salad-dressing\" title=\"Caesar Salad Dressing Recipe\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCaesar Salad Dressing\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/blog.markethallfoods.mom\/recipes\/item\/farrotto-con-porcini\" title=\"Farrotto con Porcini Recipe\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eFarrotto con Porcini\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/blog.markethallfoods.mom\/recipes\/item\/parmigiano-reggiano-sport-mix\" title=\"Parmigiano-Reggiano Sport Mix Recipe\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eParmigiano-Reggiano Sport Mix\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/blog.markethallfoods.mom\/recipes\/pasta-grain\/item\/winter-truffled-risotto\" title=\"Winter Truffled Risotto Recipe\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWinter Truffled Risotto\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Parmigiano-Reggiano Producers","offers":[{"title":"1\/2 pound","offer_id":33847093953,"sku":"SKU525","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 pound","offer_id":33847094017,"sku":"SKU526","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1935\/9089\/products\/parmigiano-reggiano_2.jpg?v=1494038144","url":"https:\/\/www.markethallfoods.mom\/products\/parmigiano-reggiano-cheese","provider":"Market Hall Foods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
