    Did you just straight up take a bite out of it?

    biting into a pecorino like that is definetly stranger than a strange pecorino romano

    That cheese has undergone a rise in temperature and then it was chilled. The cheese fat melts, then hardens again but the cheese texture turns rubbery. No way to recover, you can only grate it.

    OP is the kind of bloke that brings his own pecorino to work.

    This looks like every wedge of pecorino that has ever been in my cheese drawer.

    That happens due the temperature change from here to that and long exposure to like, heat, open air and refrigerate the cheese again.
    If you bought it and when you opened it it looked like this, the problem was in transportation and storage. And let me tell already: the heat of the summer is not a good excuse for the lack of responsibility of the store.
    If you have the purchase receipt, try to talk and see if they change it for you. Or complain to the brand to see if they have some procedure.
    You can’t save it, and as you could prove by your bite (don’t do that, btw, cut with a knife next time), it can’t bring texture and flavour to any recipe. I’m sorry about that. It happened to me before, the supermarket changed the product.

    Clearly that Roman Pecorino was already yours (or someone else’s).

  8. That looks more like grana than pecorino..

    It looks hard and dry and probably is.

    It looks just like mine when I finish to grate it.

    A lot of American cheese experts here who know very little about cheese. Having fun reading. thanks

    you always should cover up and dont make air pass through the pecorino to keep it good.
