"The protected name designation states that Parmigiano Reggiano can only be made from milk produced by cows fed with a certain percentage of fresh grass and hay within a geographic zone, according to strict regulations. Although the name controlled version is just about 800 years old, the recipe is attributed to Benedictine monks working in the Po Valley in around 1200." (Source: Cultured Cheese Magazine)
