Why the Color Red?

Historically Sicilian, Garibaldino Rosso Pecorino Siciliano owes its name to the seasoning made with sweet red pepper powder!

Garibaldino Rosso Pecorino Siciliano also has a particular and unique characteristic: it is rubbed during maturation not only with olive oil, but also with sweet red pepper, which gives it its typical red colour .

The processing of Garibaldino Rosso Pecorino Siciliano is strictly done by hand, starting to spread the wheels when the cheese is about two months old and its texture is still tender and fresh.

The mixture of oil and red pepper, which is spread, creates a protective layer on the peel, which however allows the Garibaldino Rosso Pecorino Siciliano to 'breathe' for the entire duration of maturation.

This procedure implies that the minimum maturation is medium (second salt) and excludes tume and primisal.
