Maratea - Caseus Prize

Caciacavallo cheeses hang from a rack at the Caseificio Fratelli Starace in Silla di Sassano, Italy. The cheeses are aged up to a year before consumption, and--when vacuum-packed--they're good for another six months before opening.

TIP: Italian cheeses make great gifts, because they're usually much cheaper in Italy than abroad. (But if you're bringing them into the United States, remember that only hard, fully cured cheeses may be imported. Cottage cheese, ricotta, and similar cheeses are forbidden by USDA regulations.)
