Gorgonzola Piccante DOP – Blue Cheese – 1.5 kg piece
$5.91/100 gr
This piquant or “Piccante” version should be distinguished from the better known Sweet Gorgonzola. The latter version of the gorgonzola artisan cheese is soft and creamy, while the traditional version, Gorgonzola Piccante has a firmer past with less serum content. This is due to a longer ‘baking’ period given to the piccante variety.
