igourmet Italian Pecorino Romano Cheese

Pecorino 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 a Pecorino Romano table cheese, please try our Pecorino Romano Genuino, which is still made in Lazio, the region surrounding Rome.
