Parrano cheese is made from cow’s milk and is produced in the Netherlands. It tastes soft and nutty, combining salty and sweet flavors. It has a semi-firm surface and a smooth, golden colored paste. Parrano is made in 20-lb wheels and is aged for 5 months.
Combining the flavor of ripened parmesan with a pliant texture, Parrano is marketed as an Italian-style cheese. However, Parrano is precisely Gouda cheese although its flavor is more prominent than that of traditional Gouda.
