Formerly Known as Twineham Grange Vegetarian Parmesan
RECOMMENDED BY DELIA SMITH IN HER LATEST COOKERY BOOK 'Happy Christmas'
This Medium Fat Hard Cheese, is made from unpasteurised milk, but unlike other Italian Parmesan is suitable for Vegetarians. It is a great source of zinc, calcium and protein and stores for five months from opening. So don't just grate it over your pasta (our pasta of course), proudly display it on your cheeseboard! Please note until our new creamery is built at Rudgwick, we are having this cheese made for us in Italy. in the same way that we produced our cheese.
NOT JUST A PASTA CHEESE can be Frozen!
As seen on episode 11 of the Hairy Bikers Autumn 2009 series - episode 11. Watch it again on BBC2 iplayer.
Formerly known as Twineham Grange Farmers' Hand
We had been making this Medium Fat Italian Style Hard Cheese at Twineham Grange for fifteen years, employing the same traditional methods as the Italians, simply using English milk instead, which is higher in protein and butterfat. Our Medium Fat Italian Style Hard Cheese is one that many a celebrity chef has deemed to be sweeter and more palatable than the real thing. In fact, in a blind tasting featured in Restaurant Magazine, a panel of judges were seriously hard-pushed to tell the difference. BBC 2’s “FULL ON FOOD” programme even rated it in their top five British Table Cheeses, so don't just grate it over your pasta (our pasta of course) proudly display it on your cheeseboard.
In early 2008 following the demise of our Italian landlords business in Italy, we reluctantly had to move out of Twineham Grange. We are currently in the process of setting up a new creamery, but this is taking slightly longer than planned due to the current economic climate. So in the meantime we are offering a subsitute vegetarian Italian style cheese which is made the same way in which made ours. The reason we have done this is two fold, firstly it keeps the brand alive and our thousands of customers happy and this loyalty will help us get the funding from the banks which we need to help fund our production again.
Please note we are currently re-branding our cheese and it is now called NOT JUST A PASTA CHEESE formerly known as Twineham Grange. Each month we will be adding a different serving suggestion to the packaging; ie. Have you tried this cheese with an apple or a pear?, or Have you tried with a glass of wine? The idea is to try and encorouge our customers to use it for more than just grating over their pasta. To this end we are very interested to find out how you enjoy our cheese. Please email us with your serving suggestions.
