| | Case & Counter: Gorgonzola |
 | | In terms of how it is made, Gorgonzola is closely related to a cheese known as Stracchino or Crescenza and in fact, is sometimes still called stracchino di gorgonzola on its home turf. |
 | | Originally, Gorgonzola was first made by adding rennet to milk from the evening milking, suspending the milk in a cloth sack, and allowing the whole thing to hang there overnight. |
 | | Gorgonzola, terrific on its own with fresh fruit, nuts, honey, crusty bread, and hearty red wine, is also a wonderful cheese to enhance salads, dressings, stuffing for pasta, chicken, and veal, and is even called for in desserts, again mostly with fruit and/or honey. |
