Squacquerone
Squacquerone is an Italian cheese soft and crumbly type, originally from Romagna.
Description
Squacquerone is a cow's milk cheese, made from whole milk, with a very short maturation. It is similar to crescenza, although the paste is less consistent due to the high water content. It is made of pasteurized or raw milk, and is extremely soft, creamy, and spreadable. The color is ivory white and the taste notes are typically lactic, with a sweet-sour taste. It is one of the main products with which piadina is stuffed.In addition to the common squacquerone, the Squacquerone di Romagna Protected [designation of origin|PDO] is widespread, produced only in the designated area and in compliance with the relative regulations.
