Sheep Cheese


Locatelli Pecorino Romano - 1 Pound

Locatelli Pecorino Romano - 1 Pound Lowest new price: $10.99
Brand: Locatelli

Locatelli is a brand name of cheese and Pecorino Romano is a variety of cheese. The Locatelli family began producing Pecorino Romano over 500 years ago in the Lazio region of Italy. Today, Locatelli Pecorino Romano is considered to be one of the finest Pecorino Romano's available. It is unique in quality because it is hand-crafted from 100% pure sheep's milk which when aged over 9 months at a minimum, the result is an aged, spicy and sharp, dry cheese that is perfect for a grating cheese. We like to cut up some small pieces and enjoy it as a snacking cheese, accompanied with traditional Italian antipasti and even artisanal Italian honey and compotes.

The cheese is packaged in a briny salt water bath, sometimes with fresh mint leaves. It's recognizable by its lrown before it melts. This makes it a very popular ingredient in barbequing and always present in dishes with grilled meats. It is also a common choice for desserts and snacks, layering slices of the cheese with slices of watermelon make a wonderfully refreshing summer time snack.

Pecorino Romano Genuino - Pound Cut (1 pound) by igourmet

Pecorino Romano Genuino - Pound Cut (1 pound) by igourmet Lowest new price: $12.00
Brand: igourmet

Pecorino denotes sheep's milk in Italian, and Pecorino Romano is one of the oldest and most versatile of these cheeses. Whereas Reggiano and Grana are the favored grating cheese of Northern Italy, Pecorino Romano dominates the southern portion of the country. The original production area of Pecorino Romano is Lazio, the section of Italy that surrounds Rome. The term "Genuino" can only be applied to Romano that is made in Lazio. This special Romano, made from milk taken from a dedicated herd of sheep that live just outside the city of Rome, has a grainy, crumbly texture that is much more flavorful than inferior varieties. A little goes a long way. We enjoy it grated into soups, salads, pastas and gratin casseroles. Sprinkle it over fresh vegetables to add that extra zest.

Don't buy Pecorino Romano pre-grated. As a distinguished cheese pundit remarked, "God didn't make cheese in shakers and it was not born grated". We recommend "grate as you go" because flavor is rapidly lost in powdered form. Tightly rewrap the remaining cheese and store in your refrigerator.

Pecorino Romano by Zerto - Pound Cut (1 pound) by igourmet

Pecorino Romano by Zerto - Pound Cut (1 pound) by igourmet Lowest new price: $15.99
Brand: igourmet

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, which is still made in Lazio, the region surounding Rome.
