Reggianito is a very hard granular cows’ milk cheese from Argentina whose origins lie with immigrant Italians who wished to make a cheese reminiscent of their native Parmigiano Reggiano. The name—the Spanish diminutive of Reggiano—refers to the fact that the cheese is produced in small 6.8 kg wheels rather than the huge Parmigiano-Reggiano drums.The cheese which is rather saltier than its Italian parent is generally used for cooking or for grating over pasta dishes.
