Pecorino Romano is a true gem of Italian gastronomy, featuring a rich, complex, and slightly spicy flavor, with roots that delve deep into ancient Rome. It was a star at imperial banquets and a staple in the diets of Roman legionnaires, boasting a history that spans over 2,000 years. As early as the first century AD, the writer Columella described the production of Pecorino, which continues today in Pecorino Romano. Although its name recalls ancient Rome, its manufacturing has mainly been based in Sardinia for over a century. As the poet Virgil recorded, it was the cheese of the legionaries, who were allotted a daily ration of one ounce (27 grams). Today, Pecorino Romano PDO is one of the most exported Italian cheeses to the United States, cherished for its distinctive flavor and ancient heritage.

Pairings and Tips:

Pecorino Romano, with its rich and slightly spicy flavor, is wonderfully suited to revitalize everyday cuisine dishes. It is ideal when grated over a classic pasta with cacio e pepe, where it enhances the flavors with its intensity. For those who like to experiment, try adding it in flakes to summer salads with walnuts and pears for a tasty and surprising contrast. Pecorino Romano is also excellent for enriching appetizers, like warm croutons with a drizzle of honey for a perfect balance between sweet and savory. Moreover, it pairs beautifully with robust red wines, which balance its strong personality. A versatile cheese that should never be missing from the pantry of those who love bold flavors.
