Profile

If you take mozzarella, hand rub the surface with brine, bind it with rope and hang it up in a room at the right temperature and humidity, it will turn into an entirely different cheese called provolone. Provolettine is basically a mini provolone. It has a succulent sharp, buttery flavour that will be the star of any antipasto plate.
