San Pietro cheese has
a semi-hard, compact paste of pale straw yellow colour with the occasional
eye. There is also a raw milk version of this cheese. A maturing
period of at least sixty days is required in order to obtain a cheese
of soft and delicate flavour, suitable for slicing; if aged longer,
the flavour will become aromatic, and moderately piquant.
