Raw cow milk is soured with thermophilic cultures, set with calf rennet and cooked to 46 °C, then the curd ferments on tables until it will stretch. It is stretched in hot water, shaped like a caciocavallo, brined, cold-smoked over beech shavings and ripened for months, up to about 18 months for the largest cheeses. Made in 11 steps over 5.1 months – 18 months. The longest step, ripen in fir straw, takes 5–18 months (ONAF) and runs at 7–12 °C (ARSIAL (Regione Lazio)). Thermophilic lactic acid bacteria from the added starter, which ferment the curd on the tables until it reaches stretching pH does most of the fermenting.

What makes this one different
It begins like Ciambella di Morolo and other caciocavalli, but it is cold-smoked over beech and then aged much longer, bedded in fir straw. The large 5 kg cheese can age to 18 months, far past the usual fresh or semi-aged caciocavallo.
Milk
Whole raw cow milk
Smoking
Cold smoke from beech shavings, 1–1.5 h, never above 30–35 °C
Ripening
At least 5 months (1 kg) to about 18 months (5 kg)
Size
1.2–5 kg; oval caciocavallo shape with a small head
Made from raw milk, though the curd is stretched in water near 90 °C and the cheese is ripened for months. ANSES advises pregnant women, people over 65, people with weak immunity and young children to avoid raw-milk cheeses.
Hazards the sources name: Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella and enterohaemorrhagic E. coli, the main hazards ANSES names for raw-milk cheeses.
Morolo's cheese dairies are recorded making Gran cacio, like the Ciambella di Morolo, since 1933. The regional sheet names the wooden stretching tub, the long ripening and the smoking as the traditional parts of the method.
