Mrs IP pops to Florence for work and I ask her to grab a wedge of Parmesan. "The man in the shop said it was Parmesan". Hmmmmm

Apparently it's something equally delicious and regarded. Although I never heard of it (despite being born and raised 100km from where it seems to be produced), it seems a quite bespoke version of Parmigiano.

How does it taste? Do you want to trade a wedge of it for an equivalent one of 30month cured Parmigiano?

Also, how much did your mrs pay for it? I'm assuming around 30/40 euro/kg

It tastes lovely, we used it this evening in a rocket, grilled baby courgette and chilli breadcrumb salad (Polpo cookbook) with a thin panko chicken cotoletta. It's had my grubby fingers on it now but if you want a fresh wedge the good lady goes at least once a month.

It was about €20/kg.
