Cheese with worms,  Cerdeña


If you like strong smelling cheese, such as Gorgonzola, you may like this. Casu Marza is a soft and decomposed sheep's milk cheese that serves as a home for the larvae of the cheese fly. When you order this plate you will see how the insects move, but be careful not to disturb them too much when moving the duck since they can jump up to 15 centimeters... before you eat them.
