What is Pecorino Cheese?

Pecorino is one of Italy's oldest and most famous cheeses, made from sheep’s milk and aged to perfection. With varieties that range from mild and creamy to hard and salty, Pecorino is a versatile cheese perfect for grating over pasta, enjoying with wine, or savouring on its own.

Types of Pecorino Cheese

• Pecorino Romano: This is the most popular type of Pecorino, known for its strong, salty flavour and crumbly texture. Ideal for grating over pasta dishes like Carbonara or Cacio e Pepe.
• Pecorino Sardo: A unique cheese from Sardinia, this Pecorino has a slightly milder flavour and a smoother texture, making it perfect for both grating and enjoying as part of a cheese platter.
• Pecorino Toscano: A Tuscan variety that’s softer and less salty than Pecorino Romano, offering a more delicate flavour, often enjoyed with honey and fresh fruit.

How to Enjoy Pecorino Cheese

Pecorino cheese is incredibly versatile. Whether you’re grating Pecorino Romano over pasta, adding it to salads, or serving it as part of a cheese board, its robust flavours pair well with a wide variety of foods. Pecorino Toscano is perfect for pairing with sweet jams or fruits, while Pecorino Sardo adds a unique flavour to Italian-style dishes.

Pecorino Cheese Pairings

Pair Pecorino with bold red wines like Chianti or Sangiovese for a classic Italian experience. It also goes beautifully with fresh figs, pears, and honey. For something more savoury, try it with crackers and salami to create a true Mediterranean feast.
