Pecorino Romano (200g)

200g

SHEEP / PASTEURISED / ITALY

Sometimes used as a substitute for Parmigiano Reggiano, Pecorino Romano is equally as versatile. Its sharp, salty flavour makes it popular for grating over rich pasta recipes, including the famous Cacio e Pepe, but unlike Parmigiano, it is made from sheep's milk. Its name comes from the popularity it enjoyed throughout the Roman Empire. 90% of Pecorino Romano comes from Sardegna, and the remaining 10% of production is divided between Lazio and the Tuscan province of Grosseto.
