Firm
M.F. : 24% Moisture : 45%Like the traditional Caciocavallo, this firm, stringy cheese made from pasteurized milk is always hand-moulded into a pear shape. The smoked Caciocavallo, on the other hand, is brownish, and has the distinct bouquet and taste of wood smoke.
Liven up your vegetable soup by melting a little Smoked Caciocavallo into it. It’s also the perfect topping for a comforting caramelized onion soup. Traditional and Smoked Caciocavallo are both delicious on pizza and even in polenta. It’s a very versatile cheese!
Smoked Saputo Caciocavallo is available at most supermarkets.
