How to make Pecorino Romano at home using Raw Milk

Pecorino Romano is a PDO certified cheese that uses raw ewes milk and lamb paste rennet. It is also heavily salted.

The raw milk for this cheese was provided by Graham Strong, owner of Arcadia Saltbush Lamb. He is experimenting milking ewes from his flock to produce sheep's milk cheeses and kindly donated some of his milk to me for testing purposes. Link to Graham's Facebook page;   / arcadiasaltbush  

In my version of Pecorino Romano, I am using raw ewes milk, but also adhering to the ASNZ Food Standards Code 4.2.4 section 16 for making cheese with raw milk in Australia. Here is a link to the code; https://www.legislation.gov.au/Detail...
