Discover the authentic taste of Italy with Auricchio Imported Provolone Cheese, a traditional Italian cheese that brings centuries of cheesemaking expertise to your kitchen. This genuine provolone from the renowned Auricchio family, who have been crafting exceptional Italian cheeses since 1877, offers the distinctive sharp, tangy flavor and smooth texture that makes provolone a beloved staple in Italian cuisine. The cheese features a pale yellow interior with a natural rind, delivering a complex flavor profile that ranges from mild and creamy when young to more pronounced and slightly piquant as it ages.
Auricchio Provolone is incredibly versatile in the kitchen, making it perfect for both cooking and serving. Its excellent melting properties make it ideal for Italian dishes like chicken or veal parmigiana, baked ziti, and authentic Italian sandwiches. The cheese also shines when sliced thin for antipasto platters, paired with cured meats, olives, and crusty Italian bread. For cooking applications, try grating it over pasta dishes, incorporating it into risottos, or using it as a flavorful addition to frittatas and quiches.
When selecting wine pairings, this imported provolone complements medium-bodied red wines like Chianti or Sangiovese, as well as crisp white wines such as Pinot Grigio. Store the cheese properly wrapped in the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature before serving to fully appreciate its rich, nutty undertones. Whether you're preparing traditional Italian recipes or experimenting with fusion cuisine, Auricchio Imported Provolone adds authentic Italian character to any dish.
