The sources interviewed all agree in attributing the semantic origin of the name proper to its function, namely the need to save excess milk:
"Around the first decades of the 1900s, my grandfather collected the salvo from the Bergamen who came with their herds from Brescia and Bergamo and who saved the surplus milk during their journey. It was called salvo because it had saved the surplus milk. "
“When the hot period came, the soft cheese didn't last long. The Bergamen returned to the mountains while those who had stopped in the plains needed to use the milk in excess and use it in the production of a cheese that could have a medium-long duration. "
The production area of Salva Cremasco includes the entire territory of the provinces of Bergamo, Brescia, Cremona, Lecco, Lodi and Milan. The product looks like a quadrangular parallelepiped shape.
During the maturing period, which lasts for a minimum of 75 days, the wheel is frequently turned over and treated with a cloth soaked in saline solution or dry brushed, in order to maintain the characteristics of the rind and reduce hyphae, contributing to make the shape take on its characteristic color. No treatment of the rind is allowed, except for sponging with water and salt, and the possible use of edible oil and aromatic herbs.
