Raw whole ewe milk is warmed to 30–35 °C and set with natural lamb rennet, made from dried lamb stomach. The curd is broken with a wooden stick, warmed again to 40–45 °C, packed by hand into bottomless wooden moulds and salted, usually in brine. It is eaten fresh at about 20 days or aged for 4 months or more.

At a glance
Raw whole ewe milk is warmed to 30–35 °C and set with natural lamb rennet, made from dried lamb stomach. The curd is broken with a wooden stick, warmed again to 40–45 °C, packed by hand into bottomless wooden moulds and salted, usually in brine. It is eaten fresh at about 20 days or aged for 4 months or more. Made in 6 steps over 20 days. The longest step, ripen in cellars, takes at least 20 days (ONAF (national organisation of cheese tasters)).
One of the few Tuscan ewe cheeses whose curd is semi-cooked, warmed again to 40–45 °C before moulding. It is made in limited amounts and goes to home use and direct sale at the farm.
Rind
Fairly smooth; deep straw-yellow, ochre when aged
Size
Cylinder 15–22 cm across and 7–11 cm high
Season
Made all year (regional sheet); ONAF gives February to October
FrescoAbout 20 days; soft rind and soft, slightly sour paste.
StagionatoAt least 4 months; hard rind and firm, salty paste, grated on pasta.
Safety
Made from raw milk; salting, usually in brine, and ripening of about 20 days or more follow. ANSES, the French food safety agency, says Listeria and enterohaemorrhagic E. coli in raw-milk cheeses can kill. It advises pregnant women, people with weak immunity, people over 65 and young children to avoid raw-milk cheeses, except cooked pressed cheeses such as gruyère or comté; its page does not name pecorino. It adds that raw-milk cheese well cooked, as in an oven dish, no longer poses a risk.
Hazards the sources name: Escherichia coli O157 in raw ewe milk; in a challenge study of pecorino made by other recipes it was still detectable after 90 days of ripening.
ONAF's sheet says Pliny the Elder mentions pecorino production in Tuscany in some passages. It says that by the mid-1800s this was already a specific cheese made with precise techniques, and that around Zeri the method is still passed down among shepherds and cheesemakers.
