Moliterno is an Italian cheese named after the town where it originates in the southern region of Basilicata. Typically known as a sheep cheese, it is also frequently made by blending a small percentage (10-30%) of goat’s milk. The cheese is formed in a basket for about 24 hours and left to age. Aged for 6 months and rubbed with olive oil to retain its moisture. The pate is firm and slightly crumbly with a flavor that is rich and salty with a strong bite.
