Pepato Tuscano alla Amaris
oil on wood, 8x8"
From the Cheese Portraits series.
This mild cows milk cheese is modeled after the Italian pecorino with peppercorns added. Sarah Jepsen sent this to me along with her "Winter Fury" from Alaska, for help with my cheesemap project, which aims to get every state represented!
The delicious, well-balanced creamy and semi-firm cheese was made by her daughter-in-law, Amaris, hence the title - I didnt want to offend any Italian DOP cheese producers! Like Sarah, Amaris is a talented amateur cheesemaker just creating good cheese for herself, to exchange with her family and immediate community. It's a necessity that is less available in their part of the state. I totally have enjoyed both of their cheeses and am grateful for their help.
