How Grana Padano is Made - Watch the Production of Italy's Most Popular Cheese

[AD: Grana Padano] Join us as we tour a dairy farm by Lake Garda and learn how the famous Grana Padano cheese is made. We captured the entire production process of Italy's most popular cheese, from when the milk is delivered in the morning, to the cooking and curdling process, until it reaches the aging room. Then we watched as an expert checked the cheese wheels, cracked one open, and, the best part, we got to taste a special 27-month old Grana Padano Riserva cheese.
Next, we journey to the venerable Grand Hotel Fasano where executive chef Matteo Felter teaches us how to cook his signature Grana Padano risotto. The recipe uses Grana Padano cheese rinds to flavor the risotto water, and a healthy amount of Grana Padano cheese is grated on top. Curry and balsamic vinegar powder, as well as apple cubes and apple blossoms, are used to garnish the dish.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWe3kHWAn86nfbM this is my favorite recipe, the one that Grana Padano sent a cease and desist to a small creator trying to censor his video because he said their name.

[@hledanymuz2269]

put Padano in salsa and dip doritos in it :D

PARMIGIANO REGGIANO

It's secret and tight hold, are you dimm???

It's middle in the night and I just decided to go early tomorrow morning into a shop and buy Grana Padano!

Great video, Anders! Italy loves you! Next step, pecorino romano!

Riccardo Lollobrigidi Pecorino is a lovely Italian cheese too! :)

Pecorino Sardo would be even Better, knowing the struggles that farmers had gone trough this last year

I'm having this cheese right now so I've decided to learn how such an amazing piece came to my table. This video answered my question perfectly. Thank you 🧀

[@sarahssmileee]

That IS a lot of cheese! Love this!

[@2rs2pure]

This is so not... Accurate. Check up the process before this.. You should all watch the undercover investigation from Essere Animali (Grana Padano) (available on KZbin, warning, disturbing images, viewer descretion IS ADVICED).. how their cheese is ACTUALLY made is sick and even illegal how they do.

[@NatiHerron]

Nice! The risotto looks amazing!

[@andersandkaitlin]

Nati Herron it was perfect 👌🏼

[@ASTERIXIANEWS]

According to BBC today 8/8-23: "An Italian man has been crushed to death under thousands of wheels of a Parmesan-style cheese, authorities said. Giacomo Chiapparini, 74, was buried when a shelf broke in his warehouse in the Lombardy region on Sunday, firefighter Antonion Dusi told AFP. The collapse created a domino effect bringing down thousands of wheels, which weigh about 40kg (84lbs) each. It took 12 hours to find Mr Chiapparini's body, Mr Dusi said. Some of the wheels reportedly fell about 10m (33ft) and a local resident told Italian media the collapse sounded "like thunder". The economic damage caused has been estimated at €7m (£6m). Speaking to Italian media, a neighbour described Mr Chiapparini as "very supportive… and generous". They also said he lost a child decades ago. The warehouse, located in Romano di Lombardia, about 50km (31 miles) east of Milan, contained a total of 25,000 wheels of Grana Padano, a hard cheese which resembles Parmesan and is popular in Italy."

Next time, we'll bring a tent and spend the night in that cheese room. The smell! :D

A fascinating and beautiful peek behind the scenes. I never realized everything that went into the process of cheesemaking!

It's mesmerizing to watch that lump of cheese bopping up and down in the water!

What is the weight for 1wheel of that amazing cheese

I believe around 40 kilo.

Is this Medeghini's factory in Nuvolera?

[@user-pw2fh5mk3x]

This cheese use any Italian food?

[@darija5494]

How were you granted the permission to film and try cheese? Did you pay something? Great video!

[@andersandkaitlin]

Hey, this was a paid collaboration with Grana Padano as mentioned in the caption and video. In other words, they asked us to film there. :)

[@xanderscookingschool1497]

The title's gotta be wrong. I could of sworn Parmigiano-Reggiano and Pecorino Romano were more popular.

[@andersandkaitlin]

It's probably hard to measure exactly! This was the info we found at the time.

[@tenochvilla6296]

What’s the difference between grana padano and Parm?

[@andersandkaitlin]

Great question! It's basically the regions they are made and brand protection.

[@peerapongchaunhuai1245]

How much for 1 wheel

[@andersandkaitlin]

Haha, a lot!

[@c.s.4273]

1000 Dollars.

[@dirtshower250]

Cool story, I have a bunch of Family with the last name Grana, come to find out they are part of the same bloodline that started Grana cheese

[@andersandkaitlin]

Are you sure it has anything to do with that family name? "The name comes from the Italian word grana, a reference to the characteristically grainy texture."

[@Fedinside]

What about Moroccan foods please 😊😊👋

[@andersandkaitlin]

Maybe one day :)

[@Fedinside]

Anders Husa & Kaitlin Orr yes go to Marrakech city

[@roxy_xcxc6869]

😅cannot find in Singapore as usual, Sg from 1st world Country to selling 3rd World NTUC extra low grade cheese😃 Very Shameful in Sg market.

[@Carlos-fv2fm]

Cheese is addictive the same way sugar is, so I only eat it maybe twice a year. Its from mothers milk and must be addictive for small mamals to suck it out. Heaven on earth taste 🥰

[@cgsauve]

Your hair was in the cheese at the end of the video? Why did you not have your hat in the cheese room?

[@andersandkaitlin]

Different when it's liquid and hard. Can get your hair stuck in the first, but not the last.

[@GammaRBLX]

To those wondering what Grana Padano tastes like, it's a bitterish, chalky and salty type of cheese

[@andersandkaitlin]

I would say salty, crumbly and slightly sweet and caramelized. Not bitter and chalky.

[@GammaRBLX]

@@andersandkaitlin Oh, I must've tasted it wrong or maybe the one I had wasn't authentic?

[@andersandkaitlin]

@@GammaRBLX I don't know. Have you tasted Parmesan cheese? They are very similar.

[@MisterPoppy-sc1sj]

I didn’t know it was an African cheese..

[@thegreatujo]

Jeez... that cameraman couldn't have zoomed more into that lady's face when she's talking

[@andersandkaitlin]

My girlfriend and I only had a camera-mounted microphone when shooting this, and the rooms were really noisy so I had to be close so you could hear the audio we recorded.

[@SrilankaChaneL]

I can see Grana padano made by the immigrant 😊😂👍

[@andersandkaitlin]

Not sure if this was meant as a positive or negative comment, but I can only see positive things with a multi-national work environment, and there were definitely Italians working here as well.

[@xST36Kx811]

Too bad about the e coli recall.

[@solcitozorrito]

1:33 gurl do you know for what is this cap? TO COVER your hair. You have literally all your hair out, that's gross asf. Good video tho.

[@hansmuller3604]

Why is she having the white thing on her head if hair and earrings are not covered????

[@eighsapiens3195]

I'm sorry to find that your cheese is so litigious it can't handle someone emulating it or their own personal eating.

[@quirkycuisine]

No gloves on hands😮

[@andersandkaitlin]

The idea that gloves on hands are needed for food handling is fundamentally wrong. Good hand hygiene is the key. Gloves will be full of germs too, if they are not washed or changed regularly. Gloves are mainly used when it makes sense to switch them out frequently because your hands get so messy or sticky that it's impossible without gloves.

[@quirkycuisine]

@@andersandkaitlin you are right...But technically speaking you cant do a lot of stuff with gloves on, from itching to wiping off your nose and a lot more..for commercial manufacturing, gloves are essential

[@andersandkaitlin]

@@quirkycuisine I disagree. You could do all of those things with gloves on, but you would care less about washing it off, because you have gloves on anyway. Gloves can be useful in some situations, but they do not replace good hygiene in general.

[@WDEMMEL]

Grana Padano is horrible. I would never buy that stuff. This awful association treated Gavin Weber like shit.

[@andersandkaitlin]

Seems they apologized to him and invited him on the exact same tour you can see in this video!

[@c.s.4273]

His Name is Gavin Webber.

[@dottorcorsi]

Huge mistake, parmiggiano reggiano is the Italy most popular cheese!

[@andersandkaitlin]

Grana Padano is the most sold worldwide: www.igourmet.com/granapadano.asp

[@tuuliragen4520]

But why get your hair on the freshly cut cheese and then eat over it with crumbs falling off your mouth?

[@andersandkaitlin]

Is there another way to eat cheese?!

[@eliosbono4211]

Sorry but the most popular chees in italy is PARMIGGIANO-REGGIANO.

[@andersandkaitlin]

No, actually the most sold is Grana Padano.

[@amitupadhya90]

I don’t care if this is a paid promotion video.. just keep reducing these type of contents

[@andersandkaitlin]

There will always be a good mix of paid and unpaid videos here. Most of the stuff we do, like regular restaurant visits, is unpaid, of course.
