Discover the authentic taste of Italy with BelGioioso Sliced Provolone Cheese, a versatile semi-hard cheese that brings traditional Italian craftsmanship to your kitchen. This conveniently pre-sliced provolone offers the perfect balance of mild, nutty flavor with a smooth, creamy texture that makes it ideal for both cooking and snacking.
BelGioioso, a renowned Wisconsin-based cheesemaker with deep Italian roots, has been crafting authentic Italian cheeses since 1979 using traditional methods passed down through generations. Their sliced provolone features a characteristic pale yellow color and firm yet pliable texture that melts beautifully when heated. The cheese develops its distinctive taste through careful aging, resulting in a mild, slightly tangy flavor with subtle smoky undertones that complement a wide variety of dishes without overpowering them.
This sliced provolone excels in countless culinary applications, from classic Italian sandwiches and paninis to hot dishes like chicken parmigiana, baked ziti, and pizza. The pre-sliced format saves preparation time while ensuring consistent thickness for even melting. Layer it in grilled cheese sandwiches, add to antipasto platters, or melt over roasted vegetables for an instant flavor boost. For best results when cooking, add the cheese during the final minutes of cooking to prevent overcooking and maintain its creamy texture. Store refrigerated and bring to room temperature before serving on cheese boards to fully appreciate its nuanced flavor profile alongside crackers, cured meats, and fresh fruits.
