Romano cheese

Romano cheese is a type of hard, salty cheese that is easy to grate with a cheese grater. It's named after the Italian cheese Pecorino Romano. Along with Parmesan, Romano cheeses are usually grated over pasta. Note that Romano mainly refers to cheese produced in the United States or Canada. Pecorino Romano is a genuine Italian cheese, and there are specific regulations as to how and where it can be made. These rules do not apply to Romano cheese.
