global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Technical-scientific notes on the food safety of the Grana Padano PDO cheese rind <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Grana Padano PDO is a safe food<\/strong>, as specific testing has shown that the production process set in the Production Specification Rules guarantees the elimination of any pathogens potentially<\/strong> present in the raw milk used, which might subsequently develop in the cheese. This occurs as a result of the combined effect of the temperature and pH established during the production process of the wheel, thanks to natural lactic fermentation, which continues for several hours.<\/span><\/p>\n The outermost part of the cheese gradually becomes rind. It first begins to form around 24 hours after production, completing its development thanks first to the salting of the cheese in brine and then to the subsequent maturing process, which must last a minimum of 9 months. During this time, the rind hardens to protect the cheese inside<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n The wheels are left to mature in dedicated warehouses with controlled temperature<\/strong> and humidity<\/strong>. Over the long months of maturing, the wheels are regularly brushed<\/strong>, cleaned and turned; this not only favours the loss of humidity but also eliminates any surface contamination by moulds present in the environment, which could form on the surface as a result of natural exudation.<\/span><\/p>\n Hence, during the maturing phase, the Grana Padano PDO rind acts as a barrier against any external agents<\/strong> which could compromise the cheese.<\/span><\/p>\n Once the cheese obtains the Grana Padano PDO fire-brand, it can be sold subsequent to cleaning and, in some cases, transformed into portions, grated cheese, chunks, flakes or other processed products. As for all non-pre-packaged foods, all those who come into contact with the product at any stage of the sales chain are obliged to implement a HACCP system, in compliance with food industry requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n Proper application of the HACCP<\/strong> system ensures the food safety<\/strong> and edibility of the rind of Grana Padano PDO cheese.<\/span><\/p>\n The use of the rind of this cheese<\/strong> as a food product is therefore correct, permitted and indeed included among the ingredients in a number of recipes<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n Bibliographical references<\/strong> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Image Carousel” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ global_colors_info=”%91%93″][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ make_equal=”on” module_class=”img_carousel_main” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”90%” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ module_class=”image-magnify” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.granapadano.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/img-01-43914.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” module_class=”pop-hover-1″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.granapadano.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/img-02-43915.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” module_class=”pop-hover-1″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.granapadano.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/img-03-43916.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” module_class=”pop-hover-1″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.granapadano.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/thumb-consorziati-6.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” module_class=”pop-hover-1″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”CSS & JS CODE IMAGE POPUP CAROUSEL : 01″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_code admin_label=” JS CODE” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

This creates the perfect \u201cwedges\u201d, and the ideal balance between cheese and rind, to guarantee a flavour that is a true triumph of sensations.<\/p>\n\n

Is the rind of Grana Padano edible?<\/h1>\n
The Grana Padano PDO rind is therefore an integral part of the cheese<\/strong> and is perfectly edible once the outermost surface has been carefully cleaned<\/strong>, as with the peel of an apple, for example; indeed, in accordance with the Production Specification Rules<\/a>, the rind does not undergo any chemical treatments and is not covered by any colouring or plastic material.<\/span><\/p>\n
