The "tuma fresca alle olive," known as "tumazzu" in Sicilian, is a fresh cheese made from sheep's milk. With its compact texture and cylindrical shape, it's a delicacy rooted in Sicilian tradition. Tuma is crafted from curd, without the addition of salt or preservatives. 

Perfect as the centerpiece on the table, its natural melting quality makes it an excellent choice for appetizers, pasta dishes, and local recipes like baked pasta and "schiacciate." For a perfect pairing, enjoy it with a light white wine to enhance the cheese's freshness.
