Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

  2. 2

    Season the Cheese

    Slice the Pecorino cheese into thick pieces. Arrange the slices on an oven-safe baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with fresh thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Bake the Cheese

    Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Bread

    While the cheese is baking, toast the Italian bread slices in a toaster or on a grill until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Slice the Pears

    Core and slice the pears into thin wedges.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Plate

    Once the cheese is ready, carefully remove it from the oven. Serve the melted Pecorino with toasted Italian bread and pear slices on a platter. Drizzle with spiced truffle honey before serving.
