Tonda with truffle
Very similar to the Quadra, also the Tonda can be enriched with black truffle. It is called after its round shape, typical of the home-made mountain cheese. This cheese is made from raw cow’s milk and its rind can be irregular because of the way it is processed. It is tasty and sharp thanks to the black truffle from Alba added in it.
Again, the ripening process takes place in underground stone caves that guarantee the best moisture level for maturation.

Characteristics
It is hard and with small holes. The inedible rind is thin and brownish. Also the Tonda is a semi-fat cheese characterized by a strong, suitably sapid and balanced taste. The truffle in it adds an immediate flavour, which is both delicate and intense.
How to savour it

It can be served on its own or used in various typical recipes, especially main courses as risottos, potato gnocchi or homemade pies. It is also used in a classic mountain recipe, the fondue, to be savoured with croutons (small pieces of fried bread).
Recommended wines are young soft reds when the cheese is fresh, alternatively it can be accompanied by delicately fragrant and very elegant white wines such as Muller Thurgau and Friulano (former Tocai) or Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi
