More information

Informations

Mascarpone is a creamy cheese that is obtained from milk cream through a denaturing process, obtained by adding acids (citric acid, lactic acid) to the raw material. After this operation, the whey is removed without any pressing or seasoning. This product has a milky-white color and is easily spreadable. When fresh, its aroma is reminiscent of milk and cream.

Territory

The origin of Mascarpone is usually found in the area between Lodi and Abbiategrasso, south-west of Milan, probably between the end of the sixteenth century and the beginning of the seventeenth century. The name presumably derives from the term "mascarpa" - a dairy product obtained from the whey of Stracchino cheese - or from the word "mascarpia" - a local dialectal term used to identify Ricotta cheese, despite Mascarpone is not obtained from whey (as it is the case for Ricotta cheese).
