- Some years ago the famous chef Vissani sentenced the Strachitunt the best cheese of the world.
The Strachitunt was born in Valteggio, a soft paste blue cheese made up of two different curds.
This cheese is produced using an unique technique, that is to say the sediment in layers of the two curds.
The cold curd obtained from the evening milking is left resting hung in dripping cloths. The next morning curd, the so called hot curd, is cut and made resting for only 20 minutes instead.
The two curds, hot and cold, then are broken immediately before the mixture and then they're sedimented in layers.
The wheels then are salted.
Pairing with rice, ravioli, fine meats but also in pureness with some good bread, jam and a glass of red wine.
