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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let Others Cut the Cheese, April 10, 2011
This review is from: Pecorino Romano by Zerto - Pound Cut (1 pound) by igourmet.com (Misc.)
Usually I'm a stickler for cutting my own cheese, but this time I decided to go with letting someone else cut the cheese. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the aroma. Usually others' cut cheese doesn't quite have the distinctive aroma of deliciousness of my own, but this one was fantastic. In the future I will be more willing to smell when others cut the cheese instead of being so reliant on when I cut the cheese. Thanks for opening my eyes and nasal passages, Zerto!
