How Italian Gorgonzola Cheese Is Made | Regional Eats | Food Insider

The Gorgonzola industry is worth over $800 million. Almost 5 million wheels are produced each year and production is confined to the Italian regions of Piedmont and Lombardy. There are only 29 dairies in the world certified to produce this cheese. We visited Caseificio Si Invernizzi in Trecate, Piedmont, Italy, where between 450 and 500 Gorgonzola wheels are made every day.

How One Of Italy's Rarest, Most Expensive Cheeses Is Made | Regional Eats

Caciocavallo cheese is one of the most popular cheeses in Italy and is famous for its signature elongated shape. In the caciocavallo family, there is one kind that is so rare that at times it can be even more expensive than the finest of Parmesans: caciocavallo Podolico. This special type of caciocavallo is made with the raw milk of Podolica cattle, a rare breed of cattle confined to a few areas where water is scarce and survival is difficult. One of these is the Gargano, a peninsula whose close proximity to the sea gives Podolica cows’ milk a rich, earthy flavor. This milk,in combination with how the cheese is aged, lends a salty, sharp, almost spicy flavor to the finished product. Virginio Frumenzio, a full-time livestock breeder and part-time cheesemaker, shares the story of this incredible cheese with us.

Why Parmesan Cheese Is So Expensive | Regional Eats | Food Insider

A wheel of parmesan cheese can cost over $1,000. A single wheel takes at least one year to age, 131 gallons of milk to make, and it can only be made in a restricted area in northern Italy, in the region of Emilia Romagna. We visited a dairy in Parma, Italy to find out how the cheese is made and why it is so expensive.

How Traditional English Stilton Cheese Is Made At A 100-Year-Old Dairy | Regional Eats

Stilton cheese takes its name from the village of Stilton, in the east of England. The earliest reports of cheese made and sold here date to the 17th century. In 1724, English writer Daniel Defoe referred to the town being famous for cheese, calling the product the English Parmesan. Today, Stilton can only be made in six dairies, which are spread across three counties in England: Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, and Derbyshire. We visited Colston Bassett Dairy in Nottinghamshire to learn more about the cheese is made.

How Ricotta Cheese Is Made In Italy | Regional Eats

Ricotta is a very versatile cheese that can be eaten in very different ways. And, technically speaking, it’s not even really a cheese, because it comes from the liquid whey when the milk is curdled. Bigger dairies that make cheese often consider liquid whey just a leftover product and use it to feed livestock or even discard it.

But for smaller, local dairies here in Italy, it is a great opportunity to optimize their resources and get something great out of them. We visited a dairy in the town of Locorotondo, Italy, where cheesemaker Giovanni Montanaro transformed liquid whey into ricotta.

How Cornish Cheese Is Made Using A 400-Year-Old Recipe | Regional Eats

If there were a competition for the most beautiful cheese, Cornish Yarg would claim the title. Each cheese is wrapped in wild stinging nettles, which are brushed on by hand one by one. With aging, the nettles form a natural rind around the cheese, giving it a fresh, creamy taste with hints of herbs, mushrooms, seaweed, and even lemon. So how did this recipe even come about? It was actually found randomly in a book about 400 years ago. We visited Lynher Dairies in the heart of Cornwall to find out more.

How Italy’s Biggest Mozzarella Balls Are Made | Regional Eats

Caseificio La Fattoria in Battipaglia, in the Campania region of southern Italy, makes fresh mozzarella with buffalo milk that can weigh up to 88 lbs. The dairy makes the mozzarella in a variety of shapes and sizes, but its brightest star is called Zizzona, which takes its name from a word in the local dialect that means 'a mother's breast.'

The Zizzona of Battipaglia is a very big buffalo mozzarella, Production Manager Gennaro Paraggio told INSIDER.

The peculiarity of it is that there is a nipple on top of the mozzarella which reminds of a mother's breast because it releases milk. The name Zizzona comes from a word in our local dialect which means 'a mother's breast' that releases milk.

Caseificio La Fattoria was established in 1988 by the Paraggio family to honor a generations-old tradition started in 1930. Overall, the dairy makes over 9 tons of mozzarella a day, 4,000 of which are Zizzonas.

The Zizzona is made so that the dough inside is solid, strong, but it also has to have a web-like structure, said Paraggio. This means it has to be able to hold milk inside. The same milk that is used during production. So that when you cut it open, the plate is filled with milk, and when you eat it, your mouth is filled with fresh milk as well.

During our visit to the dairy, we saw how a 66-pound Zizzona is made.

How Authentic Feta Cheese Is Made In Greece | Regional Eats

Feta is made with a combination of sheep's and goat's milk, which gives it that creaminess and an extra kick compared to cow's milk cheeses. But depending on where you are in Greece, you'll get a different tasting feta, from soft and buttery to hard and tangy. It's all down to the combination of the two milks and how much of each you use. We visited Messini Cheesemaking in the Peloponnese to find out all the secrets behind the making of feta cheese.

Editor's Note: In the video we wrongly refer to rennet as coming from milk. Rennet is an enzyme produced in the stomach of ruminant mammals. The feta in the video is made from cow and goat rennet.
