Pecorino siciliano (Sicilian: picurinu sicilianu; lit. 'Sicilian pecorino') is a firm sheep milk cheese from Sicily. This cheese comes from the classical Greek world: in ancient times it was recognized as one of the best cheeses in the world.
It is produced throughout the island, but especially in the provinces of Agrigento, Caltanissetta, Enna, Trapani, and Palermo. It is a pecorino-style cheese, like its close relation pecorino romano, but not as well known outside Italy as the latter.
