Cheezemaking story of the week

AlJ has a story about making Parmesan cheese.

Actually, about how immigrants from India are saving the Italian Parmesan industry.....

A decade ago, when Jaswantsing imagined his future, he saw himself working as a computer engineer in his native Punjab province in India. But at home, there are more computer engineers than there are jobs. Others from his village had already made their way to Italy - they said the pristine farms along the Po Valley looked just like home. The difference was that in Italy there was work and the possibility to provide some financial security for his wife and two daughters, now aged eight and 11. So, eight years ago, Jaswantsing followed the "Sikh Road" to Italy to work in the milk factories. He arrived at the Catellani Gianni Farm in the village of Masone.
