Made with sheep’s milk pasteurised at 72°C, cooling at 32° – 35°C. Cheese cultures are added and mixture is left to ferment, after which rennet is added and the mixture coagulates. The curd is broken up and drained into moulds. Then the cheese is brined and dried in a cold room at 6° – 8°C. It is aged for over 60 days in virgin fir crates with chamomile flowers so that it maintains its softness, fragrance and intense scent.

Sicilian Sheep Pecorino with Peppercorns – 100 gr
$5.95Â
Pecorino cheese with black peppercorns is a cheese of long Sicilian tradition. While some say that the original recipe included not just the black peppercorns in the cheeses’ inner core, but the skin was also lined with chopped black pepper – a different processing that allows to flavor the cheese, protecting it at the same time, avoiding the “discomfort” of eating pepper grains.
