Pecorino di Fossa Ovillis Ambrosia 1kg

The Pecorino di Fossa from Gastronomia Beltrami is a cheese made from thermized sheep's milk and aged for at least 5 months in a pit in the snow of the Palazzo Rusticucci in Cartoceto, in the Marche region. It is made from the milk of Sarda and Sopravissana breed sheep, raised in high pasture above 500 meters altitude. 

The aging of the pecorino cheeses refined by Gastronomia Beltrami takes place in two caves dug into tuff and clay, which were historically filled with snow to cool the above storage. The pits are usually prepared in August, when a bed is set up where the wheels of pecorino cheese, along with various aromatic herbs, are subsequently arranged. Once the hatch is closed, fermentation begins, creating the yeasts and molds that characterize the aging flavors of this extraordinary type of cheese. After 100 days, the pits are reopened, and aging continues on wooden planks.

Pecorino di Fossa Ovillis Ambrosia 1kg: use in the kitchen

The Pecorino di Fossa di Gastronomia Beltrami (which we present here in a 1kg portion) is a delicious cheese to eat at the end of the meal with fruit mustard or with chestnut honey or even wildflower honey.
Great to pair with structured white wines or sweet wines, or with full-bodied red wines.


Tasting


With a sweet flavor and notes of ripe fruit and cellar. It is never aggressive or overwhelming, despite having a remarkable flavor persistence.
The rind is dark, with shades from pink to orange. The paste is yellow with possibly darker spots. The shape is irregular because it is deformed during the aging process in the pit.
