Gorgonzola Dolce
Gorgonzola Dolce PDO is an uncooked, straw-white cheese whose green streaks are due to the marbling process, i.e. the formation of mold. It is creamy and soft, with a characteristic, pleasantly spicy flavour.
In addition to cow's milk, penicillin spores are cultivated to create a beautiful blue pattern for the finished cheese. Gorgonzola Dolce PDO is matured for about two months, quite soft, creamy and with a delicate taste with notes of butter and cream. It always comes from carefully selected farms in the P.D.O. area. The numerous controls carried out when the milk arrives at the factory, in addition to those carried out by the P.D.O. chain, guarantee the absolute excellence of the raw material used. The milk is preheated and pasteurised, a process that makes the product more homogeneous and, above all, destroys pathogenic germs. At the farm, this phase is carried out using heat recovery, which guarantees significant energy savings. The entire production process (from pasteurisation to maturing) is carried out in accordance with the highest hygiene standards.
