La Cava's semi-aged Canestrato is a traditional Sicilian cheese, handcrafted from a combination of sheep's and cow's milk, rennet, salt and milk enzymes. Its medium maturation gives it a balanced flavour: more delicate than the matured Canestrato, but already rich in full, savoury notes. To the eye, it has a straw-yellow colour, with the distinctive canestrato marks characterising its surface and enhancing its artisanal appearance.

The traditional workmanship and care in maturing make Semi-mature Canestrato a cheese with an authentic taste, ideal for those seeking a product that balances freshness and intensity.

Ingredients

Pasteurised sheep's milk, pasteurised MILK, salt, rennet and milk enzymes.

Usage

Thanks to its balanced and slightly savoury flavour, La Cava semi-mature Canestrato is perfect for enriching a variety of dishes. Here are some ideas on how best to use this cheese in your kitchen:

Appetisers and Cheese Platters: Semi-mature Canestrato is ideal to enjoy in cheese boards. Accompany it with honey, citrus jams or dried fruit to enhance its delicate but already full flavour. It pairs perfectly with cured meats and homemade bread, making it ideal for rustic starters.

Grated or Flaked on Pasta Dishes: This cheese lends itself well to being grated or flaked on pasta or risotto dishes, enriching dishes such as a revisited carbonara or pasta alla norma with its flavour.

Baked and Gratinated Dishes: Use Canestrato Semistagionato to prepare gratinated dishes such as aubergines alla parmigiana, pasta timbales or baked vegetables. Its texture allows it to gently melt and brown, adding a savoury and soft note.

Main courses: Add cubes of Canestrato Semistagionato to omelettes, savoury pies or as a filling for meat rolls or stuffed vegetables. Its delicate but savoury flavour balances and enriches recipes without overpowering them.
