Today, the chef proposes many delicious ideas with Montasio and gourmet combinations worth a try. Let us find out together.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Montasio Pdo cheese<\/strong> expresses its peculiar features at best when combined with <strong>fruits<\/strong>, exotic ones as well. The important is to regulate and measure the two ingredients. As for preparations, the <strong>mango<\/strong> chutney pairs well with a ripened Montasio with its intense flavor and perfume. Even <strong>coconut<\/strong> tastes good in combination with a mature Montasio paying particular attention to balancing the overall sweetness of the course. For example, a crepe with fresh coconut, bitter cocoa and grated fresh Montasio. Another refined pairing is the following: fried cubes of fresh Montasio with a <strong>red fruit<\/strong> sauce, whose sourness helps to \u201cclean\u201d mouth between one mouthful and the next, for a pleasant tasting experience. Dried fruit, together with spices, for preparing choreographic lollipops (wafers) of Montasio for the delight of the most demanding dinner companions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For a Montasio-based healthy and tasty second course, you can pair it with <strong>vegetables<\/strong>, adding vitamins and minerals to proteins and calcium of the cheese (for more details: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.montasio.com\/nutrition-education\/\">http:\/\/www.montasio.com\/nutrition-education\/<\/a>). For example, a <strong>salad of mixed turnips<\/strong>, prepared with raw celeriac, boiled beetroot and raw or roasted white turnips in combination with a Montasio sauce, or an <strong>oven-backed savoy cabbage with Montasio<\/strong>. In the choice of fruits of the garden, it is better considering <strong>seasonality, <\/strong>this way you will get the best from each product in terms of nutrients. In autumn, you can prepare delicious <strong>pumpkin<\/strong> tortelli filled with Montasio as first course, or a second course of fried cubes of Montasio and pumpkin. Even mushrooms pair very well with cheese. A lasagna with <strong>mushrooms <\/strong>and a Montasio fondue (with an extra-light b\u00e9chamel for a fluffy lasagna) or a grill roasted porcino mushroom\u2019s top sprinkled with grated Montasio and then cooked au gratin: simply mouthwatering.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Another mix you cannot miss is Montasio and <strong>fish<\/strong>. <strong>Mullet<\/strong> in particular, this is a ground fish with an intense flavor: very tasty combined with thin strips of Montasio mezzano and cooked in oven or steamed. Another proposal: roasted <strong>salmon<\/strong> paired with a Montasio sauce, a delicate and savory dish.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You just need a pinch of originality to prepare good, beautiful and healthy dishes with Montasio.
