Get thyself a
Microplane Zester!!! The cheese looks so purdy after you zest it with this thing. Like snow!
I've just discovered Italian cheese beyond mozzarella, provolone, and Parmesan-Reggiano. Pecarino is a little salty for my taste, but I've used it in some things. I love freshy grated Asiago cheese on a fresh tomato-pasta salad! Romano in cheese fillings, etc.
I had a snack of some honey and ricotta a little bit ago. ;)
German-Italian cuisine isn't well-known, but it may be Someday! LOL
Whaddya mean German-Italian isn't well known?
You've never had Lasagna at Fra Diavolo on the Clay Allee in Berlin! Delicious! They also have a tintenfisch (octopus) pizza that is...well...less than appetizing!
Then there was the Italian restaurant under the Schlangenbader Strasse overpass in Berlin that was run by Turks who could speak neither Italian nor English. Good food, but ordering was an adventure!
