This hard cheese is made from raw cow's milk and rennet. Two days after the production of the loaves they are cured immerging them in a brine.
Then the loaves are briefly dried in an oven and finally brought in a warehouse for maturation.
During the ripening period the organoleptic characteristics of Grana Padano develop. The wheels are cured about every two weeks with brine and turned around.
Grana Padano contains a lot of protein, minerals and vitamin B12. Since it does not contain lactose, it can be eaten by people with lactose intolerance. The fat of Grana Padano cheese is over 30% unsaturated fatty acids.
Grana Padano is produced throughout the year.
