Pecorino Canapa 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 and hemp flowers are added. The forms are then salted for 80 to 100 days and left to ripe for eight to 12 months prior to release.
It has a sharp, salty, and spicy flavor. It is usually eaten on its own or grated in pasta.
This is a pre-order cheese and waiting period to receive it is approximately 2 weeks.
