Taleggio D.O.P.

Item #: 4897

Taleggio has been on plates of Italians since the time of the Caesars. It is a semi-soft, washed-rind Italian cheese from the Lombardy region, known for its pungent aroma but surprisingly mild, fruity, and tangy flavor with a creamy, buttery interior. It has a thin, pinkish-orange rind and melts beautifully. making it excellent for cooking on pasta, polenta, or pizza, and pairs well with bold red wines.  It also pairs well with fruit, smeared on bread alone or with spices and tomato on bruschetta.
