Taleggio

Dairy and Egg Products

Taleggio is a semisoft, washed-rind, smear-ripened Italian cheese named after Val Taleggio in Lombardy, where it originated. It carries protected designation of origin status and is made in Lombardy and Piedmont. The cheese has a pinkish-brown rind that is thin and edible, with a strong aroma, while its interior is creamy and pale yellow. Despite the pungent smell, its flavor is mild with subtle fruity notes.
