Imported from Italy
Cut Fresh from the Wheel
This is a classic aged Italian Provolone with a distinct, robust flavor that sets it apart from younger, milder varieties. It is an outstanding table cheese, valued for its firm texture and complex, sharp taste.
At Frank and Sal Italian Market, we import this cheese from Italy and offer it in 1, 2, and 3-pound portions. Each piece is cut by hand from the wheel after you place your order, then vacuum-sealed to help protect its flavor and freshness. We pack it with cold packs in an insulated EPS cooler for shipping.
Milk Fat Content:
44% to 54% milk fat in dry matter.

A Note from Frank and Sal
This is the kind of cheese we grew up with. It is a true Italian table cheese. While it is excellent for cooking, its quality really stands out when it is sliced and served with good bread, olives, roasted peppers, and cured meats.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between this and mild Provolone?
The main difference is aging. Mild Provolone is younger, softer, and more delicate. Sharp Provolone is aged longer, giving it a firmer texture and a deeper, stronger, and more complex flavor.
What are the best pairings for this cheese?
Its strong flavor pairs well with crusty Italian bread, olives, roasted peppers, prosciutto, soppressata, and other cured meats. It can also be grated over hearty pasta dishes, broccoli rabe, or Sunday sauce.
How should I store it?
Keep the cheese refrigerated in its unopened vacuum-sealed package. Once opened, wrap the remaining cheese tightly in cheese paper, parchment paper, or plastic wrap and return it to the refrigerator.
What allergens are present in Provolone cheese?
Contains milk. Always review the product package for the most current ingredient and allergen information.
