“Lavatella” – cow’s milk washed-crust
Product code
Availability
Lombard production, with cow’s milk has a characteristic washed rind, just the name comes from this since it is a cheese of the Bergamo plain, washed rind… so we called it Lavatella. At least 3 washes are repeated with a brine composed of water and Cervia salt. Handcrafted is an excellent alternative to the Formajo del Polentone and given its smaller size can be appreciated by more people.
These smaller dimensions (diameter of 10 cm and a height of about 4/5 cm, the average size of 750gr), compared to its larger “relative”, make it very different both in terms of aromas and flavors, in fact this is more flavorful, since the salt will act differently in the crust and therefore in the penetration into it.
Pasteurized cow’s MILK , Live milk enzymes , Rennet , Salt. ALLERGENS: MILK and MILK protein.
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;
Smell: 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;
Flavour: 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.
- Wine pairings:
Large structured white wines, reds, or structured bubbles.
