It looks like Taleggio and could easily be mistaken for it in a dark nightclub. Both come from the Lombardy region of Italy, though Brescianella comes exclusively from the province of Brescia for which it is named. When ripe ("stagionata" means aged or ripened) Brescianella is oozingly runny with a pungent aroma, an orangish white rind on its way to blue, and a creamy center. The taste is sweet and creamy with a hint of funk.
I once was served a Taleggio risotto so I tried to make a similar dish with Brescianella. I made a traditional Risotto alla Milanese with arborio rice, garlic and chicken stock which I finished with dollops of Brescianella. The cheese melted well giving the rice a smooth, silky sheen. It was wonderful.
