Pecorino Gran Riserva del Passatore is produced in Emilia-Romagna.
The sheep’s milk is heated, and calf rennet is added to create the “cagliata”. This paste is then broken, and half-cooked. The forms are then dry-salted and rubbed with raw flaxseed oil every day in order to maintain soft rind and to allow a uniform maturation.
It has a sharp, salty, and spicy flavor with some distinctive traces of truffle. It is usually eaten on its own and with vegetables or grated in pasta.
This is a pre-order cheese and waiting period to receive it is approximately 2 weeks.
