Cut to order from a Mitica Parmigiano Reggiano DOP wheel and packaged by Tavola Market.
Parmigiano Reggiano DOP is one of Italy’s most celebrated cheeses, produced exclusively within its protected area of origin in Emilia-Romagna and parts of Lombardy according to centuries-old standards. Known as the “King of Cheeses,” authentic Parmigiano Reggiano is made with just raw cow’s milk, salt, and rennet, with no additives or preservatives. Long aging develops its signature firm, granular texture, natural crystalline crunch, and deeply savory flavor, with notes that can range from buttery and nutty to brothy and slightly fruity. The DOP designation guarantees that every stage of production follows strict traditional requirements within the designated region. Grate generously over pasta, risotto, soups, and vegetables, shave onto salads, or break into rustic chunks and enjoy with prosciutto, balsamic vinegar, honey, or fruit. Even the rind can be simmered into soups and sauces for extra depth.
