Locatelli Pecorino Romano Cheese, 1 Pound
Description
Pecorino Romano is one of the world's oldest recorded cheeses. The sharp, briny, tongue-buzzing qualities of Pecorino Locatelli 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 Locatelli 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. Approved wheels are wrapped in the signature Locatelli printed paper and shipped across the globe. The Auricchio Company has imported Locatelli into the United States since the early 20th century.Description
