A cheese preparation made from finished cheese rather than milk. Aged local tome are trimmed and diced to 1–1.5 cm, mixed with about 30% ricotta from the toma whey and plenty of salt, chilli and sometimes pepper, then tied in cloth bags and pressed under stones for about 40 days. It then ripens from 60 days to 6 months or a year, forming a yellow-pink rind. A modern version uses ricotta or acid curd shaped into balls and smoked 10–15 days over a hearth.
Amounts from a sourceThe PAT sheet gives the ricotta share only. Rounded forms weigh 0.25–0.5 kg, flattened forms up to 2 kg; the cloth bag is about 15 cm across and 15–20 cm high.

A cheese preparation made from finished cheese rather than milk. Aged local tome are trimmed and diced to 1–1.5 cm, mixed with about 30% ricotta from the toma whey and plenty of salt, chilli and sometimes pepper, then tied in cloth bags and pressed under stones for about 40 days. It then ripens from 60 days to 6 months or a year, forming a yellow-pink rind. A modern version uses ricotta or acid curd shaped into balls and smoked 10–15 days over a hearth. Made in 5 steps over 3.6 months – 14 months. The longest step, ripen, takes 2–12 months (Regione Piemonte 2015).
It is made from diced aged toma bound with ricotta and chilli, pressed for weeks in a cloth bag and then aged again. It began as a way to use unsellable cheese.
Rind
None when just made; more present and darker with age, yellow-pink; very dark when smoked
Smoked ricotta ballsCow ricotta or acid curd with chilli and salt, smoked 10–15 days
Safety
The PAT sheet warns against starting from cheeses that are too moist (higher water activity), asks for spices of known origin and strict insect control. A 2004 regional study of samples from some makers considered it at risk because it ripens wrapped in cloth, while rating its hygiene medium-high, better with pasteurised ingredients and long, smoke-assisted ageing.
The ONAF sheet says its origins go back centuries and come from not wasting raw material that could not otherwise be kept or sold. It is now made on purpose, so its quality is better than before. Both sheets cite M. Parenti, Alla ricerca del formaggio perduto (1997).
