Bra Tenero DOP is a soft, semi-soft Italian cheese from the province of Cuneo, Piedmont, made primarily from cow's milk with a minimum 45-day aging period. It is a younger, milder version of Bra cheese, characterized by a soft, elastic, ivory-white paste and a delicate, milky flavor. The name "Tenero" means "tender" in Italian and refers to its softer texture, which is ideal for eating as a table cheese, in salads, or for making fondue.
