The Caciocavallo is an Italian cheese originating in southern Italy, particularly in regions such as Campania, Calabria and Sicily.
The name "caciocavallo” translates to “horse cheese” in English, which comes from the traditional method of tying two wheels of cheese together and hanging them on a horizontal rod or line to age. Caciocavallo is typically made with cow's milk, although in some variants it can also include sheep's or goat's milk. The paste has a smooth crust, pale yellow to white in colour, while the paste is firm and straw-coloured. It has a mild, slightly spicy flavor that gets spicier as it ages. Caciocavallo can be enjoyed in various ways. It can be eaten on its own as a table cheese, grated over pasta, dissolved in sandwiches or sandwiches, or even grilled or fried. The cheese's unique shape makes it suitable for melting, making it a popular choice for baking applications. Overall, caciocavallo is a versatile and delicious cheese that plays a significant role in Italian culinary traditions.
