"Cheese on horseback" is an English equivalent of "cacio (a) cavallo."

Specifically, the Italian masculine noun "cacio" means "cheese." The preposition "a" means "to, for." The masculine noun "cavallo" means "horse." The phrase refers to the drying stage whereby the cheese is placed on a horizontal branch.

The pronunciation is "KAH-tchyoh (ah) kah-VAHL-loh."
