You put your left index finger on your eye and your right index finger on the cheese ... if they sort of feel the same, the cheese is ready.

The vast grazing pastures of Argentina revealed themselves to be ideal for immigrant Italians wishing to produce Parmesian cheeses in the new world. Reggianito translates to little Reggiano, so called because instead of a massive 80 lb. drum, the Reggianito cheese is produced in 15 lb wheels. Reggianito is cured longer than any other South American hard cheese which enhances its flavor. This cheese tastes a little saltier than its namesake, but the white crystals in the Grana are not salt grains, they are due to the lactose in the milk which breaks down into free amino acids. This is why it has this lovely grainy texture. Reggianito is perfect for cooking or grating over pasta. A delightful alternative to traditional Italian Parmigiono-Reggiano.
