Parmigiano-Reggiano is made from raw [[cows' milk]].  The only additive allowed is [[salt]], which the cheese absorbs while being submerged for 20 days in brine tanks saturated to near total salinity with Mediterranean [[sea salt]]. The product is aged an average of two years. True Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese has a sharp, complex fruity/nutty taste and a slightly gritty texture.

Uses of the cheese include being grated with a [[cheese grater]] over [[pasta]], stirred into soup and risotto, and eaten in chunks with [[balsamic vinegar]]. It is also a key ingredient in [[alfredo sauce]] and [[pesto]].

Parmigiano crusts should never be discarded because they have their culinary uses. Added to a pot of soup or when cooking plain white rice, they can lend a pleasant, fine aroma to it, and they can also be chewed and eaten.
