Pecorino Romano DOP - Authentic Sheep's Milk Cheese
$25.99 / kg
Indulge in the robust and savory flavor of authentic Pecorino Romano DOP, a hard, salty Italian cheese made from sheep's milk. Originating from the region of Lazio, near Rome, this cheese boasts a rich history dating back to the Roman Empire. Pecorino Romano is a Protected Designation of Origin (DOP) product, ensuring its quality and authenticity.
Our Pecorino Romano is crafted using traditional methods by local artisans in the Roman countryside. The sheep graze on the lush pastures, imparting a unique flavor to the milk. The cheese is then aged for a minimum of five months, developing its characteristic sharp and tangy taste.
This versatile cheese can be enjoyed in various ways. Grate it over pasta dishes like Cacio e Pepe or Amatriciana for an authentic Roman experience. Serve it as part of a cheese board with crusty bread, grapes, and walnuts. Or simply savor it on its own with a drizzle of honey.
