- The award-winning Lithuanian cheese producer has launched a range of four grated cheese mixes, adapted to be versatile additions to pasta, pizza, salads and bakes
Each item in the range has been specially formulated to offer the ideal combination of maturity, texture and melt rate for each style of food, and is packaged in a resealable bag for freshness and convenience. Suitable for vegetarians, each 250g pack provides calcium, protein and energy.
Audrius Staponkus, export manager for Džiugas said, “This cheese develops very distinctive characteristics as it matures. While it maintains the easily recognised Džiugas character, the taste increases in depth, the texture develops a gentle crystalline crunch and the structure becomes less elastic and more craggy.
“Our innovative idea is to carefully select Džiugas of different maturities to grate and mix in different quantities to achieve the ideal combination to use as a pizza mix, pasta mix, salad mix or bake mix. In each instance the balance has been chosen which gives the best texture and melt rate to suit each style of food, based on how it is cooked and served.”
The range is now available to order through Carron Lodge.
