It's been a little while since we've written anything about John's adventures in the world of Italian Cheese. He's still at it, trying a new cheese every week.
Here's a few photos and comments from two recent samples. Salva cheese is a very white and very mild cheese from Lombardy. Made from cow milk, it has a very delicate flavor, along with a slight acidity.
Everyone's heard of Gorgonzola, which is a standby cheese here. It's simply everywhere. Most of it is young and pretty soft. John prefers the aged, mature Gorgonzola, which is significantly sharper and more pungent. It's a little crumbly, and is great stuff.
