Festival del SILTER D.O.P – Temù, Italy
The * Festival del SILTER D.O.P * goes into its 6th round!
+Silter+ is a unique raw cow´s milk cheese of an inimitable taste, that takes its name from the room in the malga that was used for maturing the wheels.
The event starts Thursday the 7th of December and will easily carry you through the whole weekend.
There will be guided tastings, music and the crowning of the best Silter of the year.
When traveling through northern Italy and its mountainous regions of the Piedmont and Aosta Valley one type of cheese that will often cross your path is a “Toma”.
It´s a mountainous pal – pressed, and often made from skimmed or partially skimmed milk – who finds his relatives in the French and Swiss “Tomme” who are lurking on the other side of the mountain peaks.
