Raw sheep or goat milk, kept at 4 °C, is set with animal rennet at 35–37 °C in about 30–40 minutes, and the curd is cut to rice or maize-grain size without cooking. It is gathered in a linen or cotton cloth into a flat, square-cornered slab, pressed under a board and stone, kneaded and pressed again, then salted dry a day on each face. It ripens on wooden boards at 8–12 °C for at least 30 days.
No fixed amounts recordedThe regional sheet gives the method, not a batch size or doses. A cheese weighs 1.0–3.0 kg. An older ONAF text republished in 2011 gives 2–4 kg, 30–36 °C at setting and one to two months of ripening.

Raw sheep or goat milk, kept at 4 °C, is set with animal rennet at 35–37 °C in about 30–40 minutes, and the curd is cut to rice or maize-grain size without cooking. It is gathered in a linen or cotton cloth into a flat, square-cornered slab, pressed under a board and stone, kneaded and pressed again, then salted dry a day on each face. It ripens on wooden boards at 8–12 °C for at least 30 days. Made in 6 steps over 33 days. The longest step, ripen, takes at least 30 days (Regione Piemonte 2015) and runs at 8–12 °C (Regione Piemonte 2015).
Close kin to the Nostrale d'Alpe of Cuneo, but formed in a cloth instead of a rigid mould, pressed twice with a kneading between, which gives the flat shoe-sole shape.
Size

The regional sheet's 2004 survey of 3 lots found no Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes or staphylococcal enterotoxins; E. coli was high (10^6 cfu/g) in one sample. Good hygiene practice is the control it names. It may be made from raw milk, and the sheet sets a minimum ripening of 30 days. The US FDA says ageing raw-milk cheese for 60 days may not remove E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella, and Listeria may grow in some cheeses while they age. The CDC says people at higher risk, including pregnant women, people 65 or older and people with weak immunity, should avoid raw-milk cheese unless it is heated to 165 °F (74 °C) or until steaming hot.
Hazards the sources name: Escherichia coli (10^6 cfu/g in one of 3 sampled lots); Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes and staphylococcal enterotoxins not found.
The cheese comes from the alpine pastures of the Monregalese area between the Tanaro and Vermenagna valleys, centred on Ormea and Valcasotto, where herders kept a few sheep and goats with their cows and shaped the cheese by hand with few tools. Production was small and sold directly. The methods passed by word of mouth, and ONAF notes that no written historical descriptions have been found. A 2011 ONAF text names the historian Tullio Pagliana's study of shepherd life in the Alta Val Tanaro for the alpine origin. Piemonte's 2015 sheet lists four books as proof that the method has been stable for over 25 years, namely Giovanni Del Forno (1981), the INSOR atlas of typical cheeses (1991) and two works by Sandro Doglio (1995, 1996). It sits in the region's 2015 list of traditional products (D.D. 460 of 24 July 2015).
