About Pecoroni romano

Pecorino Romano is a hard, salty cheese made from sheep's milk, originating from Italy, specifically the Lazio region. Renowned for its sharp and tangy flavor, it’s a staple in Italian cuisine, often grated over pasta dishes or used to enhance sauces and soups. Nutritionally, Pecorino Romano is rich in protein and calcium, promoting strong bones and muscle health. It also contains essential vitamins like B12 and healthy fats. However, it's high in sodium, which may not be suitable for individuals managing blood pressure or heart health. Additionally, its fat content can contribute to calorie intake if consumed in large amounts. When enjoyed in moderation, Pecorino Romano can be a flavorful addition to a balanced diet.
