Discover the perfect balance between tradition and indulgence. Our Diavoletto is a stretched-curd cheese, expertly smoked naturally to enhance its rustic flavors. The real surprise lies in the center: a tender heart of high-quality cooked ham that blends with the sweetness of the milk, offering an intense and enveloping taste experience.
1. The "Schiacciata" in a Pan (The Best Way)
It's the most delicious way to enhance stretched curd.
Cut the Diavoletto into slices about 1.5 - 2 cm thick.
Heat a nonstick skillet (or griddle) over medium-high heat.
Grill the slices for about 1 minute per side.
The result: The outside will become crispy and brown, while the prosciutto core will warm and the cheese will begin to melt. Serve immediately on a slice of toasted homemade bread.
2. In the oven or in the air fryer
Perfect if you want a sleek "surprise" effect.
Wrap the whole Diavoletto in a sheet of baking paper or place it in a small baking dish.
Bake at 180°C for about 5-8 minutes.
When you see it starting to swell and give slightly, remove it from the oven. When cut at the table, the ham and melted cheese will create an irresistible visual effect.
3. The Rustic Appetizer (Cold)
If you prefer not to cook it, focus on contrasting combinations.
Cut it into wedges or cubes and serve it on a cutting board.
Recommended pairings: Pair it with Tropea red onion jam or chestnut honey. The sweetness contrasts perfectly with the smoky and salty flavors of the prosciutto.
4. As a "Secret Ingredient"
You can use it to enhance common dishes:
Gourmet salads: Diavoletto cubes, walnuts, green apples and rocket.
Meat rolls: Place a slice of Diavoletto inside a slice of veal or chicken before rolling it up and cooking it in a pan with a little white wine.
💡 Chef's advice
If you decide to eat it at room temperature, remember to remove it from the refrigerator at least 30-45 minutes beforehand. If it's too cold, the stretched curd will become stiff and the smoking aromas will remain "locked in."
