Following the original ancient artisanal production method, the curd is cooked, formed and then pressed to facilitate the spill of the whey. Salt is manually added by the dairyman and when ready the wheels of cheese rest for some time in a pickle.

The distinctive soft and delicate taste makes it a wonderful cheese to be eaten alone or as an ingredient for delightful Italian recipes.
