Pecorino a latte crudo della Maremma

Craft product obtained by processing raw milk direct

The Pecorino a latte crudo della Maremma is a handcrafted product at 100%, the result of an ancient cheese tradition. It's really just the ' 900 Maremma area qualifies as a place of production of the pecorino of Tuscany, when, thanks to reclamation of wetlands, they begin to be born and to grow throughout numerous dairies stable.

 

It is cool that matured, cheese is obtained from the direct farm processing of raw milk; having never existed specific regulations for production, the cheese has variable shapes and ages ranging from 20 to more than 180 days. The production, by tradition, should affect the months between December and June.

 

Its unique flavor and genuine allows different combinations: from simple Tuscan bread with polenta, boiled potatoes with pears and necci (typical pancakes with chestnut flour).

 

The Pecorino a latte crudo della Maremma has become a Presidio Slow Food , intending to preserve and ensure the production exclusively from raw milk obtained from sheep fed on local fodder (avoiding feed GMOs), without the addition of yeast and without practicing treatments on the crust.
