“I realized how versatile this cheese is,” Zoe Sweeting, Creative Services Manager at Edible Manhattan says. “It can elevate any meal or it can be the star of its own dish. It’s so much more than a simple last-minute topping on a pasta dish.”

Edible Manhattan has helped spread the word across the country, co-hosting Pecorino Romano PDO feasts—most recently with .

We dined at with a carefully curated menu by Chef Rachel Orner (). The main draw was the meticulously crafted pasta. Alongside a classic cacio e pepe, Chef Orner served a rigatoni all’amatriciana with guanciale, San Marzano tomatoes, and Pecorino Romano PDO. The Chicken al Mattone—served with Pecorino Romano PDO fonduta, peperonata, pickled fennel, and pane strappato—delivered a surprising array of creamy, rich, briny, crunchy flavors, and textures.

The dessert course—Pecorino Romano PDO ice cream topped with candied hazelnut and balsamico—felt like an instant classic. It was surprising, but at the same time, the richness of the cheese and the skill of the pastry chef transformed what could have been unusual into something soulful, refined, and downright delicious.
