THE BEST WAYS TO TASTE IT
Our Primo Sale cheese with pepper is made from pasteurised whole mixed milk (sheep, goat, cow), lamb rennet and salt. It has a savoury but at the same time sweet and delicate taste, reminiscent of fresh milk and butter and the aroma of black pepper can be perceived. It is a very versatile food that can be served in slices, seasoned with a drizzle of oil and a sprinkling of pepper, or combined with honey and fresh fruit to be enjoyed at the end of a meal as a dessert to refresh the palate. It is also perfect with cooked or raw vegetables to prepare a simple but delicious meal, ideal for summer or when craving something fresh and light but at the same time rich in taste.
PROCESSING
The production method of the Primo Sale cheese involves adding small amounts of rennet to the milk and then letting it coagulate slowly. Once formed, the curd is then put to drain in special places.
Primo Sale cheese is generally small and it has a cylindrical, parallelepiped or pyramid shape.
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Primo Sale is a cheese with ancient origins, typical of Sicily. The first evidence of its production dates back to the sixth century BC, when Pliny the Elder described it as one of the best cheeses of the time in his work Naturalis Historia. Moreover, it is a cheese shrouded in legend. In fact, in the 9th century BC Homer wrote that it was Polyphemus who invented the first salt. In his texts, it is said that the Cyclops milked goats and sheep, curdled half the milk and left it to rest in woven baskets.
