Provola delle Madonie al Limone, a Slow Food Presidio. Made from cow milk of Brown breed, it has the characteristic flared neck shape. The pasta is stretched by hand with the help of a stick. It has a sweet and delicate flavor, enriched by a lemon from Sicily. Format: 500 g. Provola is a spun pasta cheese, one of the oldest in Southern Italy. Its name comes from "prova", because originally a piece of cheese was taken from the vat to check the stretching state. Provola is often referred to as a matured mozzarella, as the processing method to obtain the two products is the same up to the last stage, which is ageing, that is absent in mozzarella production. The shape of Provola delle Madonie al Limone is the classic one of many spun pasta cheeses from Southern Italy, that is pear-shaped, with a small head tied with a loop at the top. The rind is smooth and white, just like the soft, firm, and elastic pasta inside. The flavor is sweet and slightly sour thanks to the presence of lemon, and the aroma is very delicate. We carefully carry out a rediscovery of Sicilian products, good and natural. Products resulting from the commitment, passion, and ingenuity of the artisans of taste. We want to make you discover the goodness of our country, the flavors born from the meeting of peoples and cultures, the fruit of sun, land, sea, and tradition. Product Information: Name: Provola.
