The dramatic veining on White Truffle Moliterno sets the stage for its luxe flavor, a harmonious celebration of its two main ingredients—buttery Moliterno and earthy white truffle. Moliterno—an Italian stretched-curd cheese—is first left to age for four months. Only then is it infused with assertive white truffles, allowing the garlicky, pungent essence to spread through the interior. Turn this harmony into an orchestra of flavor by pairing it with a crisp sauvignon blanc.

"When I first tasted this cheese, I was struck by the flavor. Delicate, garlicky, and briny; definitely less intensely earthy than its black truffle counterpart. Grate a small amount of this cheese on hot pasta, and let the peppery flavors of the pecorino and the delicate white truffle lift your pasta game."

When you receive your cheese, unpack the order and refrigerate the items. We recommend using the cheese paper we send most of our products in to store the cheese. The cheese paper helps cover the items and stop them from drying out, while also allowing the cheese to breathe. Since cheese is mold, it's a living thing! If you cut off air circulation to the cheese, you can actually cause it to suffocate and spoil at a faster rate.
