Manchego curado is wonderful on cheese boards, with wine, or as a delicacy with dried fruit and nuts. In the kitchen, it is used grated in hot dishes, sauces or risottos, giving them a Spanish character. It pairs excellently with red wines such as Rioja or Ribera del Duero and with quality dry sherry.

Production process: The production of this cheese begins with the collection of fresh sheep's milk from the Manchega breed, which is then transported to the dairy. In stainless steel vats, the milk is heated to a temperature between 28°C and 32°C, where it is left to curdle for 30 to 60 minutes. Once the correct consistency is reached, the whey is separated, and the resulting curd is transferred into moulds, where it is pressed for at least 4 hours to obtain its typical shape and firmness. The cheese is then salted by immersion in brine, which helps develop its flavour profile and extend its shelf life. After salting, the cheese undergoes a drying phase and then ageing under controlled conditions, where its characteristic flavour, aroma and texture develop.
Ingredients: Sheep's milk from La Mancha, antibacterial salts, rennet and salt.
Features: A hard rind, light yellow to greenish-black in colour, and a firm, compact body ranging from white to yellowish ivory. Compared to the semicurado, this cheese is firmer, with a finely grained texture and an intense, slightly piquant flavour.
