Tomino is a small Piedmontese cheese, rich in flavour and tradition. Its name comes from the local dialect term “tuma”, which refers to the “falling” of the casein during coagulation. Although the name means “small toma,” the two cheeses share no characteristics other than their regional origin.
Tomino appears as a small, white, fresh disc with a soft, crumbly texture and a sweet, delicate, and slightly tangy flavour.
