Bianco Sardo
You might be tempted to think of this Italian cheese as a substitute for Parmigiano or Pecorino, but Bianco Sardo is so much more than a cheese to grate over pasta. This gem from the heart of Sardinia, Italy, is made from 100% sheep’s milk, reflecting the rich pastoral traditions of the island.
This cheese is made using the “en canestraro” method, meaning it is given its shape by placing it in a wicker basket, which gives it its rustic appearance. Aged for at least six months, Bianco Sardo has a firm, crumbly texture and its flavor is a delightful balance of nutty sweetness and a mild tangy bite. It works as a versatile addition to any cheese board, drizzled with honey or with some fine olive oil, the natural rind adding a rustic touch, while the ivory-colored interior boasts complex, savory notes. Whether paired with a robust red wine or melted into a creamy risotto, Bianco Sardo offers an authentic taste of Sardinian craftsmanship.
Ideal for those who appreciate the unique flavors of Italian sheep’s milk cheese, Bianco Sardo is a delightful choice for both casual meals and gourmet occasions.
