Calling all cheese lovers! Craving a creamy pasta dish or a pizza explosion of flavour? You know grated Parmesan cheese is the answer. But have you ever wondered if there's a difference between the stuff in the green canister and the fancy cheese with the long Italian name?
In this video, we're getting cheesy and diving deep into the world of Italian hard cheese. We'll compare the king of cheeses, Parmigiano Reggiano, to its everyday counterpart, Parmesan.
Watch on as we explore...
The Origin Story: Where does each cheese come from, and what makes Parmigiano Reggiano so special?
Milk Matters: What kind of milk goes into each cheese, and how does it affect the taste?
The Aging Game: How long is each cheese aged, and how does that impact the texture and flavour?
Flavour Face-Off: We'll put both cheeses to the test in a taste bud tantalizing showdown!
Serving Guide: Parmigiano Reggiano might sound fancy, but what is the best way to serve it? And can you serve Parmesan in the same manner?
By the end of this video, you'll be a Parmigiano Reggiano pro, ready to grate with confidence and impress your dinner guests with your cheesy knowledge!
