What You Should Know

You'd spot this 24-month Parmigiano Reggiano at the specialty cheese counter or on a wooden board at a weekend gathering — perfect for grating over pasta, finishing a salad, or anchoring a charcuterie plate. Its long-aged, crystalline texture and a tiny ingredient list (raw cow milk, salt, rennet) give an artisanal, indulgent and nostalgic vibe; those same signs (simple ingredients, traditional aging, no industrial additives) point to minimal processing rather than ultra-processing.
