Have you ever seen how cheese is made? No? So this experience is for you. A true shepherd of the Roman Countryside<\/a>\u00a0will show you all the procedures for\u00a0turning good sheep’s milk into a delicious ricotta<\/strong>\u00a0or a small “cacio<\/strong>“.\u00a0Then it will be your turn<\/strong>. You will have to boil the milk, turn it, make it thicken, extract the soft dough from the pot, process it and turn it into cheese. Fear of getting dirty? Do not be afraid. A shepherd’s coat is ready for you!<\/p>\n

Cheese Making<\/h2>\n

The\u00a0Making Cheese<\/strong>\u00a0that we propose in this article has already been done by ourselves, along with other tourists from various foreign countries.\u00a0This is not the usual demonstration<\/strong>\u00a0you can find anywhere, but\u00a0a part of real life of the Roman countryside<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Hosted in a farmhouse near Rome, a\u00a0true shepherd<\/strong>\u00a0awaits us. Not one that is improvised,\u00a0but a professional one<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

His flock is very numerous and grazes every day in the\u00a0Prenestini Mountains<\/strong>, between Genazzano, Cave and Capranica Prenestina. In short, in the heart of the\u00a0countryside of Rome<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Coming back\u00a0to the “making cheese” that we made a few months ago, the sheperd was waiting for us with his\u00a0pot<\/strong>\u00a0already ready and full of milk. A big pot, of those used by the “witches” for their evil potions …<\/p>\n

A large gas stove fed the flame under the pot that contained tens of liters of fragrant sheep’s milk.<\/p>\n

The shepherd turned the milk with a long wooden stick. At this stage it takes patience, so that the milk thickens to extract the creamy “pasta” with which we will make the “ricotta<\/strong>” or “cacio<\/strong>” cheese. We did not have to be impatient …We was really doing cheese. Nothing artificial and ready.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So the shepherd\u00a0gives us the stick and\u00a0in turn we turned the milk\u00a0<\/strong>…. more and more thick, more and more difficult to turn. But at the end we did it!<\/p>\n

The sheperd turn off\u00a0the fire and waits another bit of time to finish the thickening process. Then he puts his hands inside the milk and extracts a large ball of soft cheese.<\/p>\n

Place the soft cheese on a wooden board and start to work it, a little as you do with homemade pasta during preparation.<\/p>\n

We also do it<\/strong>\u00a0…. we massage that cream of milk that slowly takes on consistency and finally we can put it in small pieces, inside the baskets.<\/p>\n

Now that “ricotta<\/strong>” is ready. We just have to let it rest for a few hours.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, we walk inside the farm, drinking a good\u00a0Cesanese DOC wine<\/a>\u00a0and eating\u00a0some delicious salami. Chatting friendly time flew and finally\u00a0our “ricotta” was ready<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

At dinner<\/strong>, between big laughs, we had the pleasure of eating a little as appetizer. Absolutely delicious!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
