Squacquerone di Romagna

Also called Squacquarone or Squaquaròn, this full-fat soft cheese has a tradition dating back for centuries. It is made with whole cow's milk and produced in the provinces of Ravenna, Forlì-Cesena, Rimini, Bologna and partly Ferrara, all located in the Emilia-Romagna region.

Since it doesn't take more than four days to mature, this cheese should only be consumed fresh, within a few days of production. Squacquerone di Romagna is creamy and has a particularly delicate, slightly sour flavor. Squacquerone is perfect as a spread, especially on Piadina Romagnola, a type of flatbread traditionally prepared in the Romagna region.
