Pecorino Romano (PDO)
Pecorino Romano is a hard, salty Italian cheese made with sheep's milk that is often used for grating over pasta or other dishes.
The name Pecorino simply means 'ovine' or 'of sheep' in Italian; the name of the cheese, although protected, is a description rather than a brand: [formaggio] Pecorino Romano simply means 'sheep's [cheese] of Rome'.
