We recommend to cut the cheese horizontally and form two halves, then with a teaspoon create small flakes. Despite the long ageing, you will feel a pleasant sensation of fresh milk. You will taste the enjoyable notes of almond and an elegant aromatic aftertaste.
The Scoppolato has immediately become one of the excellences in the Tuscan dairy industry.
Many starred chefs let loose creating delicious dishes with this product, also based on fish. Try the Scoppolotto ®! a raviolo filled with Scoppolato, with baby squids, sage and bottarga.
