The authors of Parmigiano Reggiano's recipe are said to be Benedictine monks who made the delicious dairy delicacy in their attempts to make a cheese with great durability. This, combined with its unique taste, is why Parmigiano Reggiano is a popular and widely used cheese today. It is both a dessert cheese and a table cheese. It is popularly added to various types of spaghetti or pasta, lasagne, pizza, casseroles, sauces or risotto.
