Shaved off in thin, flavorful slivers, provolone can be eaten as a table cheese. It is good for grilling and melting; it can also be combined with a creamier cheese as a topping for pizza, or can be grated and mixed with melted butter for garlic bread.
Dolce provolone
This is young provolone, a semisoft, smooth table cheese that is mild in flavor. It is typically aged for two to three months.
Piccante (piquant) provolone
This provolone is coagulated with goat’s rennet, which gives it a stronger flavor. Aged for six to 12 months (and on up to two years), it is a grating cheese. American provolone is softer than the Italian version.
