What is Asiago cheese? Italian with a Wisconsin accent

Italian-style Asiago cheese tastes mild and buttery when young, changing to sharp and nutty when aged—similar to a cross between aged Cheddar and Parmesan. Likewise, its texture changes from elastic and firm to hard and granular with age. Serve as a table cheese; shred or grate into cooked dishes.
