Product Description
Pecorino Romano is Italy's oldest cheese, dating back to ancient Roman times. This hard sheep's milk cheese is typically aged for one year and used as a grating cheese. Zerto Pecorino Romano, like most Pecorino Romano made today, is made in Sardinia where land and sheep are abundant. Romano is an integral part of many southern Italian dishes, especially those that include pasta, tomatoes, potatoes, and other vegetables. A bit drier and saltier than northern Italian "Grana" cheeses (Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano), this cheese is excellent grated over pasta dishes but is not recommended as an eating cheese. For an eating Romano, please try our Pecorino Romano Genuino by Lopez, which is still made in Lazio, the region surounding Rome. - Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.

- An integral part of any Italian cheese assortment

- Made from pure sheep's milk

|
Product Description
Unlike our other Pecorino's, this one is not aged. Pecorino Toscano is a young 100% sheep's milk cheese, only about 40 days old when it arrives on our shores. Because it is a young cheese, it is somewhat discreet; almost shy. As the cheese first hits your tongue, you detect a hint of Tuscan herbs, grass and wildflowers. The aftertaste it leaves on your palate is a wonderfully complex flavor that is hard to describe, but easy to enjoy. Authentic Pecorino Toscano is name-controlled by the Italian Government, meaning that in order for a cheese to bear the name, it must be made to exact specifications and only in defined locales. This one is truly a special item. - Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.
- Photo depicts whole 4.5 lb. form of cheese.

While ripening under the thick layer of ash, moisture is absorbed, both preventing the formation of mold on the rind and removing acidity, leaving a sweet and tasty pecorino cheese. Bigio is a versatile cheese, hard enough to grate yet excellent served sliced or chunked as well. - Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.

Cacio di Fossa (8 ounce) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- Made from pasteurized sheep's milk
- Imported from Italy
- Millenium Cheese of Italy
- excellent as a table cheese
- grate over pasta and risotto
|
Product Description
Hailed as the "Millenium Cheese of Italy," Cacio di Fossa literally means "cheese of the pit." During the wars between Charles VIII of France and Ferdinand of Naples, the inhabitants of Sogliano al Rubicone would hide their cheese in underground fossas. This tradition carries on according to a special and somewhat complicated ritual. In mid-August, before each cheese is tied in a burlap sack and placed in fossas dug in the porous ground (tufo), they are disinfected with fire and lined with hay. The fossas are flask shaped, about three meters deep and two meters wide. Each sack is marked with the owners' name and stacked in layers on planks of wood and separated by sand. They are packed close together so no air can get in. The fossa is then hermetically sealed. Over the months they have undergone a total re-fermentation, losing practically all the whey. On November 16th this revered cheese is harvested during the holiday of Santa Caterina. The cheese is pulled from the ground, cleaned, wrapped in it's characteristic rustic brown paper, secured with a string and sold during the festivities by some, while others jealously cling to their formaggio. Fossa has an intense and somewhat piquant flavor that makes it excellent as a table cheese with fresh fruit and honey, or grated over pasta or risotto. - Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.
