The Ahrntal Valley and its cheese
The grey cheese
Der Ahrntaler Graukäse gehört zur Familie der Sauermilchkäse. Sie werden durch Sauermichgerinnung, ohne Zusatz von Lab, hergestellt und seit jeher in den Tiroler Alpen verbreitet sind. Allein schon diese besonderen Eigenschaften, bezeugen den antiken Ursprung aus einer Zeit, die noch weit vor der Entstehung eigentlicher Käsereitechnologien liegt. Der Graukäse nahm einen wichtigen Platz auf der kargen Liste der Mittel zu Bestreitung des Lebensunterhalts in dem wirtschaftlich mageren Umfeld der Bergbevölkerung ein.
Und mager ist der Graukäse wirklich – vielleicht sogar der magerste aller Käse. So mager, dass der Fettgehalt in der Trockenmasse die 2% nicht überschreitet. Der Ursprung dieser Besonderheit liegt in seiner eigenen Art und Beschaffenheit. Das Ausgangsprodukt zur Herstellung von Graukäse ist das, was von der Milch nach der Butterherstellung übrigbleibt.
In Südtirol ist der Graukäse vor allem im Ahrntal und den beiden abzweigenden Tälern, Mühlwald und Weißenbach verbreitet.
Graukäse: Wiedergeburt in der Südtiroler Spitzengastronomie
Einst galt der aus saurer Magermilch hergestellte Käse als „Arme-Leute-Essen“, mittlerweile erlebt er eine Wiedergeburt in der Spitzengastronomie. Slowfood verlieh ihm sogar ein „Presidio“, die höchstmögliche Auszeichnung.
