What it is
These are extra thin slices of provolone cheese. Provolone is a semi-hard Italian cheese made from cow's milk. It has a mild, slightly smoky flavor that intensifies with age. The thin slicing makes it melt quickly and easily. This product comes in a convenient resealable package for freshness. It is a versatile cheese that can be used in many different dishes.
How people cook with it

- Sandwich topping
- Melted on pizza
- Grilled cheese enhancement
- Baked pasta dishes
Unwrap the desired number of slices and place them directly onto your food. For sandwiches, layer them between bread. When making grilled cheese, add them to the pan with buttered bread. In baked dishes like lasagna or casseroles, distribute the slices evenly over the top or between layers. They are also excellent for topping individual pizzas or flatbreads, melting into a gooey, flavorful finish. The thinness ensures quick and even melting.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to thicker cut provolone, these extra thin slices melt much faster and more evenly. This makes them ideal for applications where a quick melt is desired, such as on delicate sandwiches or as a topping for quick-cooking items. The flavor profile remains consistent with traditional provolone.
Who it is for
