Pecorino Senese Marzolino
Code: CHE-4
Description
A soft cheese made from sheep milk from the Sienese Crete, it owes its name to the month during which it was originally produced. Fairly common in Florence and through the Siena region since the Renaissance, it was considered the best cheese on the peninsula together with Parmesan.
It offers a delicate paste, perfumed and with a snow-white colour. Its unmistakable bread loaf shape is given manually.
Suggestions
It is excellent by itself, to catch the flavour of the aromatic herbs; it is better appreciated with salads, raw vegetables, or delicate vegetable creams.
