Cheese Slices

Series 1

Under the spot light in this episode is Gorgonzola, the grandaddy of all European blue cheeses made from cows milk and its cousin cave ripened Tallegio, which until recently was one of Italy’s great soft cheese secrets. Cheese authority Will Studd travels to Northern Italy to see how and where these fascinating cheeses are created. He visits Lombardy, and the maze of underground cellars in the town of Novara where more than 70% of Gorgonzola is matured. Then it’s off to the foothills of the Alps where caves cooled by melting snow are still used to ripen Tallegio the old fashioned way by the Mauri family.
