LOCATELLI BRAND PECORINO ROMANO

Our favorite spokesperson, MARCELLO, known for his good taste and good sense presents a little history:

Pecorino Romano is one of the world's oldest cheeses, dating back to Roman times when it was made for the Caesars. It actually goes back to Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome.

Locatelli Brand Pecorino Romano was first produced by the Locatelli family over 500 years ago. Unique in quality and uniformity, Locatelli is
made from the finest grade sheep's milk and aged at least nine months to develop its unique flavor and texture.

MARCELLO'S favorite cooking and grating cheese, can also be enjoyed as an excellent snacking experience.

Freshly grated Locatelli Brand Pecorino
Romano adds an exciting touch to soups, salads, eggs, vegetables, and especially to pasta.
It can definitely replace salt as a zesty flavor enhancer. Available in Pre-Cut wedges and freshly
grated and shredded cups, MARCELLO says,
"ALWAYS TOSS IN THE LOCATELLI".
