Murianengo a cheese straddling two countries

This week we're talking about Murianengo, a very rare blue cheese similar to Gorgonzola, produced in the alpine pastures of Moncenisio, near the French border, in the Turin province. This is a very rare cheese made only by 2 producers in the high Susa Valley. Every year only about 50 wheels are made so you will have to come over and try it right in its own landscape. No other cheese tastes quite like it, in fact, Murianengo reminds of a mix of Gorgonzola and Castelmagno.
