Traditional Lucanian Cow's Milk Caciocavallo

Traditional Cow's Milk Caciocavallo from Basilicata

Cow's Milk Caciocavallo is one of the most representative stretched-curd cheeses in Basilicata's cheesemaking tradition. Made with cow's milk from local farms, it is produced using artisan methods that value the quality of the raw ingredient and knowledge handed down through generations. Thanks to its short ageing period, it retains a delicate flavour and soft texture, making it extremely versatile in the kitchen and perfect for enjoying on any occasion.

Cow's Milk, Stretched Curd and Short Ageing

Cow's Milk Caciocavallo is made with milk from local farms and processed using the traditional stretched-curd technique. Ageing, which can last up to two months, allows the cheese to develop a balanced aromatic profile, a thin rind and a firm yet soft interior. Its pale yellow colour and sweet flavour make it particularly popular even with those who prefer mild cheeses.

Perfect Sliced, Grilled or Used in Cooking

Cow's Milk Caciocavallo is excellent served in slices as the centrepiece of cheese boards and starters, but it also reveals its best qualities when grilled, developing a golden surface and a soft, stretchy centre. It pairs perfectly with rustic bread, cured meats, honey and grilled vegetables, making it an ideal ingredient for numerous Mediterranean recipes.
