Pecorino Romano 500g

Pecorino Romano DOP – Bold, Salty, and Traditionally Italian

Pecorino Romano is one of Italy’s oldest and most iconic cheeses, traditionally produced in the regions of Lazio and Sardinia. Recognised by its DOP (Protected Designation of Origin) status, this hard sheep’s milk cheese is prized for its intense, salty flavour and unmistakable character.

With a firm, granular texture and a sharp, tangy taste balanced by nutty and savoury undertones, Pecorino Romano deepens in complexity as it ages. Its bold flavour makes it ideal for grating—used sparingly to enhance the depth and seasoning of countless Italian dishes.

A cornerstone of Roman cuisine, it’s the cheese of choice for classics such as cacio e pepe, carbonara, and amatriciana. Whether sprinkled over pasta, risotto, soups, or salads, or enjoyed on its own in small slivers, Pecorino Romano delivers a punch of umami and tradition with every bite.
