Its German name means ‘Grey cheese’ and it is produced by letting the milk acidify naturally and then filtering it.
It can be eaten in both fresh and ripened versions although the latter has a much more distinctive flavour due to the lack of rennet.
It is traditionally eaten in Alto Adige accompanied by beer and slices of raw onion.
