Pecorino Romano Cheese, 1 Pound, $28.99/lb
Pecorino Romano is one of the world's oldest recorded cheeses. The sharp, briny, tongue-buzzing qualities of Pecorino Romano find themselves matched with robust reds like Chianti and add bold flavor to just about any staple Italian dish. Grate this cheese and serve it over pasta, soups and salads. As a dessert, serve it chunked, drizzled with honey and paired with ripe pears. Traditionally produced in Italy's Lazio region surrounding Rome, its production expanded to other regions, including Tuscany and Sardinia. Pecorino Romano is produced from Sardinian sheep milk and aged for at least 9 months. It is salted and rubbed with olive oil by hand during the aging process. After 9 months, experts examine the wheels for correct texture and aromas. Imported from Italy.
