Central Moliterno Cheese with Truffle is a rich and fudgy pecorino flavored with truffle. This pasteurized sheep milk cheese boasts rich, grassy flavors.

The truffle flakes crumble and melt in the mouth, adding a deliciously creamy, savory touch to the earthy flavor of the Pecorino. This cut was manufactured on the island of Sardinia in Italy.
Moliterno Cheese belongs to the pasta filata (spun-paste) cheese family, which implies that its curd is stretched and pulled throughout the manufacturing process. When Moliterno Cheese is prepared with sheep’s milk, it comes to be referred to as pecorino moliterno. Pecorino cheese is one of the most ancient cheeses, dating back to the Roman Empire. Made with Sheep’s rich milk, pecorino is said to have graced the tables of Roman emperors. Southern Italian artisans have retained an original method of preparation, wherehas the cheese wheels are salted numerous times upon drying to deliver that sharp taste. In fact, Pecorino has a dry, gritty feel and is frequently used as an alternative to Parmesan cheese. You can discover the world's best cheese in our expertly curated collection at Yummy Bazaar.
