7Pecorino Romano: The Ancient Delight

Pecorino Romano is a hard, salty cheese made from sheep’s milk.

Originating in the Lazio region, this cheese has been produced for over 2,000 years and was a staple in the diet of Roman soldiers. Pecorino Romano has a strong, tangy flavor with a slightly granular texture, making it perfect for grating over pasta dishes like Carbonara and Cacio e Pepe. It can also be enjoyed in chunks, paired with fresh fruit and honey.
