In Italian eating habits, this kind of cheese can be not only ground into crumbs, but also broken into small pieces, served with aperitif, as a pre-meal snack, or as a condiment for pasta (jiaozi, Italy), soup and other dishes, and can also be made into exquisite sweets. Italians often eat large pieces of Parmesan cheese with figs and pears, so that the salty taste of cheese and the sweet taste of pears are neutralized, and the two complement each other. When eaten with salad, it can also show the unique flavor of Parmesan. Because of its long maturity, it is easier to be digested and absorbed by human body than other cheeses, and now it has become one of the best cheese varieties in the world.
