A cheese of Lombard origin, made with cow’s milk and its characteristic washed rind.
It takes its name from this rind treatment with water and salt, as it is a little cheese “formaggella”, with a washed rind “lavata”… hence we have called it “Lavatella”.
At least three washes are repeated with a brine consisting of water and salt. Handmade, it is an excellent alternative to Polentone’s Formajo and, given its smaller size, can be appreciated by more people.
Its smaller size (10 cm diameter and a height of about 4/5 cm, the average size of 750 g), compared to its larger ‘relative’, means that it is very different both in terms of aroma and flavour, in fact this one is tastier, as the salt acts differently in the crust and therefore in the penetration inside.

Shape: flat cylindrical, with flat faces but just convex and straight sides but just convex and rounded edge;
External appearance: thin, slightly moist and sticky rind due to the mould that has spread to the outside, its colour is orange with white and grey moulds;
Internal appearance: soft, moist paste, irregular, unevenly spread eyes, straw yellow in colour;
Aroma: of yoghurt and cooked butter, a vegetal note of fresh grass, but above all an animal scent and in the rind also a characteristic ammonia;
Taste: fairly salty, it has a slightly adhesive paste at the beginning, very deformable but all in all fairly soluble in the mouth with an aroma of medium persistence, high if eaten with the rind.
- Food pairings:
Great as an aperitif, appetizer, or in a cheese plate.
