Capriolo rustico

Il Capriolo Rustico rediscovers a special ancient recipe. At the beginning of the last century, passionate cheesemakers from Turin bought Robiole d’Alba in Terra di Langa that were a little “aged” and breaded them with chopped pepper and grated cheese. They were then left to mature for a few weeks, combining a sweet and creamy paste with a tasty and spicy crust.

For fresher and more delicate flavours, you’ll love them when the inside paste is still firm, enhancing the original milk flavour. If you like stronger flavours, wait for a few days, when the rind starts making little waves and the inside gets softer, acquiring refined notes and becoming so creamy that when you cut it, it oozes out. That’s the gourmet moment!
