What You Should Know

You'd find this 24-month Parmigiano Reggiano at the deli counter or specialty cheese shelf, grabbed to grate over pasta, finish salads, or build an antipasti board. It feels indulgent and nostalgic—nutty, crystalline, and artisanal, evoking home cooking and dinner-party moments. With only raw cow milk, salt and rennet and a long natural aging process, its texture and flavor come from traditional fermentation rather than industrial additives, so it aligns with processed, not ultra-processed, foods.
