Provolone Cheese Is Closely Related To Mozzarella Cheese In Both Technique And Flavor. Early Wisconsin Cheesemakers Originally Used Ropes To Hang And Cure Provolone Cheese.

More Aged Provolone Cheese Has An Irresistibly Sharp Flavor. Provolone Cheese Makes A Delicious Sandwich, Goes Great On A Beef Roast, Or Melted On Top Of Cauliflower.
