A young sheep's milk cheese from Italy flecked with whole black peppercorns. This cheese is a wonderful study in contrasts with the creamy, rich sheep's milk flavor cooling the heat from the peppercorns. Pepato Fresco has a springy texture to it and can be sliced or shredded very easily, making it an ideal cheese for shredding over pasta or finely sliced in an antipasto dish. It may also be used as a table cheese paired with Italian Charcuterie and roasted red peppers or marinated artichoke hearts.
