Formaggio Pecorino Fresco Coratino
It is a semi-hard cheese with an elastic consistency and sparse eyes, straw yellow in colour.
It is produced using traditional technology, which involves the use of only animal rennet and manual control of the main operations.
These include processing, breaking, cooking the curd and shaping it.
The larger forms were originally intended for use as grating cheese.
Today, however, it is establishing itself as a table product.
