Visiting the home of Grana Padano has been on my bucket list for years. As soon as we decided to include Italy on our honeymoon I set about working a way to fit it into our trip. Seeing the @granapadanopdo dairy in action was truly the highlight of our Italian adventure. So much of the process is still done by hand and even the bits that now have the benefit technology rely on human instinct, taste and knowledge. Roberto who is the gentleman tapping the cheese in this video is using a tool that is over 100 years old and was his Nonno’s (or grandfathers). He uses it to test that the cheese is solid with no air bubbles. He can even ‘hear’ the thickness of the rind from his years of experience. It takes 10 years to master the true art of making Grana Padano and I felt so privileged to witness some of the magic that goes into it. A big thank you to @granapadanopdo and @pamfarioli for making it possible ❤️ . . #granapadano #cheese #cheesemaking #italy #italianfood #cheeseporn #italianfoodporn
