Salsa di Parmigiano

This spicy marinated cheese is great on crostini, in a baked potato, or on hot pasta. You can refrigerate it for days, but bring it to room temperature before using. Makes 3-1/2 cups. Serves 16.

1/2 pound Parmesan cheese
1/2 pound Asiago cheese
2 tablespoons chopped green onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoons freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1-1/2 cups extra virgin olive oil


Remove any rind from the cheeses and chop the cheese into rough one-inch chunks. Pulse the cheeses in a food processor until reduced to the size of split peas. Transfer the cheese to a bowl and stir in the green onions and garlic. Add the oregano, pepper, red pepper flakes, and olive oil. Stir well.
