Bianca Modenese

A historic recovered breed and one of the rarest selections within Parmigiano Reggiano

Rarity, territorial roots and an organic production with a highly distinctive profile.

Bianca Modenese is a historic cattle breed from the Modena area, now recovered thanks to the work of breeders and enhancement projects linked to livestock biodiversity.

During the rise of more productive breeds, its presence declined drastically until only a few hundred animals remained. For this very reason, it now represents one of the rarest and most valuable expressions within the world of Parmigiano Reggiano.

It is raised on small farms and its milk yield is limited: in many cases, one cow produces approximately 5 to 10 litres per day. Less quantity, but a raw material of great interest for cheesemaking.

Why it stands out

An uncommon production even within the most selective Parmigiano Reggiano

Limited edition

True scarcity

The current limited presence of the breed and the small size of the farms mean that this selection is neither abundant nor standardisable.

Slow Food

Slow Food Presidium

It is linked to a specific recovery and enhancement project for Bianca Modenese, a historic breed that once came close to disappearing.

Cheesemaking vocation

The composition of this milk makes it especially interesting for Parmigiano Reggiano production, with effective coagulation and a good curd structure.

Choosing Bianca Modenese means opting for a scarce production linked to local biodiversity and sustained by a raw material that does not seek mass yield, but personality, structure and origin.
