Organic Asiago Fresh Cheese

Asiago fresh cheese is a semi-soft, mild, and slightly sweet fresh cheese made from cow's milk. It originates from the Veneto region of Italy but is now produced worldwide. The cheese is made by coagulating milk with rennet, then draining the whey and pressing the curds into molds.

Manufacturers use Asiago fresh cheese for its mild, milky flavor and soft texture. It's commonly found in cheese blends, pasta dishes, pizzas, and as a topping for salads and baked goods. Its fresh, mild taste makes it versatile in various culinary applications.

JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many cheese products and components, but specific evaluations for Asiago fresh cheese are not typically highlighted.
