it is a statement of commitment to quality and authenticity. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is the casein plate placed?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the cheese making process, the casein plate is placed on the surface of the cheese before the ripening process begins.\nIt is inserted directly into the rind of the cheese, which ensures that it is permanently fixed.\nOnce the cheese has ripened, the plate is visible on the surface and becomes an unalterable seal that guarantees its authenticity.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"578\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7-578x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-48105\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7-578x1024.jpg 578w, https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7-768x1361.jpg 768w, https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7-866x1536.jpg 866w, https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7-1155x2048.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7-574x1018.jpg 574w, https:\/\/queserialaantigua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/unnamed-7.jpg 1179w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 578px) 100vw, 578px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each casein plate carries a unique number that allows the cheese to be traced from its origin to its point of sale.\nThis is particularly important for cheeses with a Denomination of Origin, where traceability is essential to ensure that the product complies with all quality and origin regulations. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The importance of the Appellation of Origin<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Denomination of Origin is a certification that protects and recognizes the quality and unique characteristics of products originating from a specific region.\nIn the case of our cheeses, the D.O. guarantees that they are made with Churra and Castellana sheep&#8217;s milk and that the production process is carried out entirely in the region of Castilla y Le\u00f3n. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The casein plate is fundamental in this process, as it allows consumers to easily identify a cheese that meets all the criteria required by the Denomination of Origin.\nIn addition, this label helps protect our customers from fraud, as it guarantees that the cheese they are purchasing is authentic and of the highest quality. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A commitment to quality and tradition<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Queser\u00eda La Antigua, our mission is to preserve and promote the cheese-making traditions of Castilla y Le\u00f3n, and the casein plate is a key tool in this effort.\nNot only does it ensure that our cheeses are recognized for their quality and origin, but it also strengthens our customers&#8217; confidence in our products. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By choosing a cheese with the casein plate, our consumers not only enjoy an exceptional product, but also become part of a centuries-old tradition that we value and respect.\nThis plate is, in essence, a testament to our dedication to quality, taste and authenticity. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br\/>The casein plate is much more than just a badge; it is a symbol of authenticity, quality and commitment to cheese-making traditions.\nAt Queser\u00eda La Antigua, each cheese that bears this seal is a guarantee that it has been made with the best Churra and Castellana sheep&#8217;s milk, following the traditional methods that have been passed down from generation to generation.\nThanks to the casein plate, our customers can enjoy the peace of mind of knowing that they are tasting an authentic product, with Denomination of Origin, and of the highest quality.&#8221;
