Provolone Rediscovered: Don Giovanni Auricchio’s Secret Recipe

In America, we're most used to eating provolone cheese on sandwiches. In fact, we consume giant amounts of it on sandwiches, pizzas, and party trays. However, the type we're accustomed to eating isn't the provolone treasured by Italians. Once you've tasted "true" provolone, aged in a cave in northern Italy, you'll feel your vocabulary for Italian cheeses expanding. A car is a car, but a Ferrari is a Ferrari.

Imported from Scotland: Mackays’ Chutneys

Add to the charcuterie and cheese some crusty bread or crunchy sea salt crackers and you have the perfect vessel for the meaty and cheesy goodness. If you're a serious charcuterie… Read More
