About Slice pecorino cheese

Pecorino cheese is a traditional Italian cheese made from sheep's milk, renowned for its rich, nutty, and slightly tangy flavor. Often aged to enhance its sharpness, it can be enjoyed sliced, grated, or melted into dishes like pasta, salads, and antipasti. Pecorino provides a good source of protein, calcium, and essential minerals that contribute to bone health and muscle maintenance. However, it is relatively high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is recommended for those monitoring their heart health or salt intake. With its bold taste and crumbly texture, Pecorino adds depth and complexity to Mediterranean cuisine while offering important nutrients.
