Pecorino is the generic name for Italian sheep's milk cheeses. This special pecorino comes dotted with red <i>peperoncino</i> flakes that give it a moderate spiciness that tickles the back of your throat without setting your mouth on fire. The <i>peperoncino</i> is an Italian red chili pepper that is shaped like a finger and about as hot as a jalapeno. Aged for over three months, the cheese has a firm texture that makes it a good candidate for slicing or grating. People who like spicy cheeses like PepperJack might find our Chili Pepper Pecorino to be a sophisticated alternative. It nicely blends the herbaceous flavor of sheep's milk with the spice of Italian chili peppers.<ul><li>Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.</li><li>Photo depicts whole 4 lb. form of cheese.</li><li>We cut and wrap this item by the 1/2 pound.</li><li>Please contact us if you would like to purchase the whole form.</li></ul>
