Risotto leek potatoes, with cave’S cheese

Hello! How is it going?

Today for me it was a day to clear.

I console  myself with what I call a Mr. risotto, I consider it very fine ‘cause it has been given a touch right from the cheese.

Sometimes I hangs out for the market of my country and a day I decided to buy the cheese from a banquet that makes auto-production.

I must say that I was very excited by the quality and above all about this pecorino cheese cave.

This seasoning is an ancient process, now back in vogue and gives the cheese a unique flavor.

This risotto with pecorino cheese cave with some pepper  is wonderful:
