Pecorino Cheese And Fava Beans - {Pecorino E Fave} Recipe - Cooking Index
All cheese is best eaten at room temperature and one of the ways Tuscans enjoy Pecorino cheese is as an antipasto with fresh shelled fava beans and a glass of wine. When the beans are young and tender, they need no cooking and can be eaten raw. If they are large, boil them until the outer skin easily slips off.
Cuisine: Italian| 1 lb | 454g / 16oz | Aged Pecorino cheese - room temperature |
