A refined and contemporary appetizer that highlights the purity of Mediterranean flavors: cubes of Pecorino Dei Pascoli, flavorful and firm, embrace a fresh heart of basil tomato sauce. Perfect for an elegant aperitif, a gourmet snack, or as finger food for classy buffets. The surprising touch? Serve these cubes with Perle alla Colatura di Alici: small spheres with a sea flavor that provide depth and an irresistible umami contrast, enhancing every bite.
Cut the Pecorino Dei Pascoli into regular cubes, hollowing out a small central cavity with a melon baller.
Cook the tomato puree with oil, salt, pepper, and chopped basil, stirring well.
Fill the center of each cube with the basil tomato sauce.
Arrange on a serving plate, decorate with fresh basil, and complete each cube with a Perla alla Colatura di Alici next to or on top of the cheese.
Store in the refrigerator, hermetically sealed, for up to 2 days. Serve chilled.
