Parmesan

Always nice to have this in the freezer for whenever I need it. So fresh - even after freezing. And tastes very good.

If you're bored with spaghetti with tomato sauce, try this lovely cheese for a Pasta Carbonara. It makes a fantastic meal! You'll need good smoky bacon or some dry-cured ham, eggs, fresh garlic, good pasta, and about a cup or so of grated cheese. I made this tonight for supper, and the cheese was what did the trick. The sauce was rich and velvety, and made the crisp bacon shine. Unlike using dry Parmesan, this cheese doesn't suck the life out of the sauce. Look up the simplest recipe you can find -- this cheese makes the job easy.

This is a good, firm slicing Parm. Its not of the drier and sharper sort best suited for grating, but suggests itself for sandwiches, fresh pasta dishes with plenty of garlic, and anywhere a little more flavor than a Mozzarella is wanted. Of the six varieties of Middlefield cheese I have sampled, all are dense and rich, and this is no exception. As the Amish do, my family kept a small herd of cows which were milked by hand. In our case, our gentle Guernsey cows provided us with milk, butter, and cheese of exceptional quality. There is no substitute for the best ingredients.

Less salty than italian imports. Locally made. Can grate or slice. Great all around cheese.

This Parmesan is fabulous. It melts like a dream and the flavor is unsurpassed.
