Mascarpone
A soft, ivory-colored cheese with the finest texture among cheeses.
Its particle density is very high, and its richness makes it resemble heavy cream.
The flavor is sweet like fresh cream, with a nutty and smooth taste, making it easy for people who are sensitive to the distinct taste and smell of cheese to enjoy.
Place of Origin: Italy
Cheese Classification: Fresh Cheese
Characteristics:
Mascarpone is famously used in Italy's well-known dessert, tiramisu. Despite its high fat content, only a small amount is needed to provide a feeling of fullness, and the fat is easily burned due to the action of Vitamin B2 in the cheese.
It pairs well with fresh fruits, sparkling water, cookies, coffee, and white wine.
