Asiago Aged Stella

Asiago is an Italian cow’s milk cheese that varies in texture depending on its age.  A young Asiago cheese typically has a smooth texture, while aged versions are crumbly.  Asiago cheese is often used for grating atop salads, pastas, and soups.  Stella makes a wonderful Aged Asiago cheese right here in Wisconsin.  This Wisconsin Asiago cheese is buttery, nutty, and smooth, and its aging process lends to a sharper, more robust flavor than Parmesan cheese, although the two cheeses are similar in taste.  Stella Aged Asiago cheese has been aged for more than 12 months, giving the cheese a dense, brittle, and crumbly consistency.  Each vacuum packed piece is eight ounces of quality Wisconsin made Aged Asiago cheese.  The Stella brand has a rich heritage of Italian cheesemaking, dating back to 1923.
