Carlino's Basket Cheese<\/p><\/div>\n

Spring brings many things and Basket Cheese is one of the tastiest and most versatile offerings of the Spring. Carlino\u2019s Basket Cheese is a variation of fresh ricotta. With Basket Cheese, the curds are carefully transferred into basket molds to drain and form. The cow\u2019s milk used to make this cheese is whole, pasteurized milk which gives the cheese full notes of milky flavor.
\nBasket Cheese is similar to tofu, not only in its consistency, but also because both are great absorbers of flavor. Drizzle some Carlino\u2019s 18 year Balsamic Vinegar over it and you\u2019ll think you are in Modena. Or if you are in a Mediterranean mood, try it topped with any of Carlino\u2019s Antipasto Bar offerings, especially our Champagne Olive Mix.<\/p>\n

The very versatile Basket Cheese is excellent when batter-dipped and fried and served with anchovy butter and just as perfect when layered with tomatoes, basil and olive oil. Mr. Carlino prefers Basket Cheese sliced and drizzled with Extra Virgin Olive Oil\u2026Carlino\u2019s Extra Virgin Olive Oil that is!<\/p>\n

Even though it lends itself to savory dishes, Basket Cheese is really known as a cheese that is used in dessert recipes. Our very own Executive Pastry Chef, Jessica Pachorkowsky Perez, uses Basket Cheese each year in making Carlino\u2019s desserts, especially the award winning Italian Ricotta Cheesecake. Once you try Basket Cheese, you\u2019ll agree that the possibilities are endless\u2026as are most things associated with Spring!<\/p>\n

Featured Cheese: Taleggio<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Taleggio Cheese<\/p><\/div>\n

April 1st, April Fool\u2019s Day, leads us to choose the \u201cApril Fool-er Cheeses\u201d as our featured cheese type. These are the washed-rind cheeses\u2026the stinky cheeses. They fool you by taking two senses, that usually travel together, to different places\u2026the nose to one place and the palate to somewhere else. They are called the \u201cStinky Cheeses\u201d because that\u2019s where they take the nose\u2026but the palate heads to heaven because of the creamy, buttery flavor that it receives. The washed-rind cheeses also coat the throat with a lick of buttery-ness so they are the perfect cheeses for champagne bubbles to land on.<\/p>\n

Carlino\u2019s offers a variety of International washed-rind cheese but Italian Taleggio is the most popular. Taleggio is a cow\u2019s milk cheese that is unpressed, supple and ripened for 40-80 days. Its paste is white and its taste is earthy and heavenly at the same time\u2026no fooling!<\/p>\n

Black Truffle Pecorino Cheese<\/p><\/div>\n

This rustic sheep\u2019s milk cheese is infused not only with black truffle, but also Champignons mushrooms. Hailing from Northern Italy, it is pasteurized and aged for about 5 months, developing an intense and smokey flavor. This semi-soft cheese is an unusual and fabulous addition to any cheese board, salad or appetizer.<\/p>\n
