How Wine Soaked “Drunk Cheese” (Caciocavallo Ubriaco) is Made in Italy | Claudia Romeo

  • Caciocavallo Ubriaco literally means “drunk cheese”. It’s a type of semi-hard cheese that is soaked in Primitivo wine for 30 days. Caciocavallo is a very popular cheese in southern Italy, but soaking it in wine completely changes its taste and texture and gives a truly unique cheese. I visited Masserie Amodio in Mottola, Puglia, Italy, to see how this beauty comes to life.

    • @riccardo_flore
      @riccardo_flore Рік тому

      "The first possibility is that caciocavallo inherited this name as it originally spread in the Kingdom of Naples. In this area, a branding depicting a horse was impressed on the cheese produced. Furthermore, in the same historical period and always in the Kingdom of Naples, these cheeses were worked in piggyback style. The Neapolitan track is further supported by the fact that the saying "fare la fine del caciocavallo" that is to say "be hanged" is in frequent use. The second possible explanation instead refers to a specific practice that is used for the production of caciocavallo which consists in hanging the cheese wheels two by two in a "horse" shape from an auction. A third similar thesis can be that according to which the caciocavallo wheels were transported by nomads during their travels and were left to dry in pairs on one side and on the other of the horse's rump."
