Pistachio Primosale Cheese

I Siciliani Pistachio Primosale Cheese is a true taste of Sicily, blending creamy, lightly salted sheep’s milk cheese with the rich, nutty flavor of pistachios. Primo sale, meaning “first salt,” is a young cheese with a soft, delicate texture and bright, milky flavor. In this version, chopped pistachios are folded directly into the curds, creating a beautiful contrast of flavors and textures that highlight the best of Sicilian ingredients.

Produced using centuries-old methods passed down through generations of shepherds, this semi-soft cheese reflects the simplicity and purity of traditional Sicilian cheesemaking. The pistachios add a subtle sweetness and crunch, making it an especially elegant option for entertaining or everyday snacking.

Serve Pistachio Primo Sale with crusty bread or crackers, or pair with fresh fruit like figs and pears. It’s excellent on a cheese board, sliced into salads, or melted into baked pasta dishes for a touch of nutty richness.

• Pairings: Prosecco, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, or a crisp pilsner
