Cheese Name: Asiago Pressato |

Description: Pressed Asiago is a mild, creamy, simple cheese -- a totally different experence from the more complex, hard aged Asiago. Asiago can only be produced in sections of northeast Italy, as it is a controlled-region cheese: It is produced from the pasture land in the Po River Valley to the Alpine meadows on the Asiago plateau, as well as in the province of Trent in northeastern Italy, an area covered within the regions of Veneto and Trentino Alto Adige. The flavor is sweet, with a touch of acidity due to its freshness. |
