The Flavors of Parma
It has always been Emilia, defined more and more frequently, the Food Valley of Italy.
It is that territory that includes the provinces of Modena, Reggio Emilia and above all Parma, elected as the "capital" of a territory that the whole world envies us for its gastronomic excellence. First of all, let's talk about Parmigiano Reggiano and Parma Ham.

Descrizione
Let's start with Parmigiano Reggiano, which embodies a unique and extraordinary journey along nine centuries. Even today, Parmigiano Reggiano is made with the same ingredients, in the same places, with the same skilful ritual gestures of nine centuries ago. It is not manufactured, it is done! It is not a publicity stunt, because in truth Parmigiano Reggiano is made every day by many cheesemakers who transform milk into cheese, influencing the quality of the product with their decisions. It is they who decide how long the evening milk must skim, how much whey and how much rennet should be used, it is they who follow the cooking and it is always they who take care of the cheese from the first hours until it is completely ripe.
And finally, what are the boundaries of the Parma Ham production area? The boundaries are the fragrant air of the Parma hills south of the city, where the sea air more easily overcomes the barrier of the Apennines, where the habit of slowness, almost maniacal, waiting for the seasoning has been preserved until today.
