Details

Add a luxurious flavor and texture to your offerings with this Gelmini Cinque Stelle DOP dolce Gorgonzola cheese. This authentic DOP Gorgonzola is crafted by third generation cheesemakers located in the countryside of Lombardy, Italy outside of Milan. Using traditional Italian methods, this cheese is made by adding penicillium roqueforti mold spores to the curds, resulting in its iconic, tangy blue veins that are intricately laced into the mild and subtly sweet flavor of the pale white cheese. Made from rBST-free cow's milk and aged for 2 months, this Gorgonzola is a staple in Italian cuisine and is perfect for adding flavor, complexity, and creaminess to risotto, pasta, and salads.

The complex yet approachable flavors of dolce Gorgonzola cheese is perfect for creating a memorable cheese board. The cheese is soft and creamy, making it perfect for spreading on crackers or crusty bread. Additionally, this cheese is ideally paired with honey, jam, and tart fruit such as crisp green apple slices to complement the flavor of the cheese and create a cohesive, sweet and savory spread. Soft and savory red and white wines can be recommended to your customers alongside this sweet Gorgonzola, with Riesling, pinot bianco, or Chianti classico as standout options. Try adding this Gorgonzola to green salads alongside chopped apples, red onion, toasted walnuts, and a champagne vinaigrette. Make this authentic Gelmini dolce Gorgonzola a staple on your menu and benefit from the generations of tradition compiled in this sweet and tangy cheese!
