What is this product?
Pecorino Sardo Classico is a semi-hard Sardinian sheep's-milk cheese supplied as a quarter wheel of about 2 kg. It is a firm, savoury cheese for everyday professional cooking and cheese service.
Producer and format
The commercial designation is Collesardo and the supplier record identifies Gennaro Auricchio S.p.A. The product is supplied as one quarter wheel of approximately 2 kg; its weight-based unit does not indicate a fixed case quantity.
Organoleptic profile
The paste is firm and semi-hard, with a clean, savoury sheep's-milk character. Its flavour is decisive without being limited to one recipe, making it suitable for slicing, grating, shaving and melting.
Professional uses and dosing
Slice for boards and aperitivo, grate over pasta, soups and gratins, shave onto salads and carpacci, or melt into fillings and baked dishes. Start with 20 to 30 g per pasta portion and adjust to the recipe and desired intensity.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not serve the cheese ice-cold if the menu allows it to temper, and do not add it to a sauce without tasting for salt first. Avoid excessive heat when melting so the texture remains controlled.
Storage and handling
Keep refrigerated at 0 to 4 degrees Celsius and well wrapped to protect the cut surface. Bring a service portion briefly towards room temperature, then return the remainder to chilled storage and follow the label after opening.
