Mozzarella di Buffala

The Original
Mozzarella di Bufala has a springy texture and a pleasantly sourish taste with a faint mossy smell, reminiscent of the humid grazing fields of Southern Italy. If you've never had the real Mozzarella before, it's definitely time you tasted this sublime delicacy. This oft-copied but never duplicated gem is a fresh, drawn-curd cheese made from whole buffalo's milk. It is porcelain-white in color, spherical in shape with a very thin glossy rind.

Cow Version
While Italian Mozzarella is made from Buffalo milk, the cows milk substitute has this same creamy texture and stringy bite.

While the buffalo Mozzarella has a sharp and tangy aftertaste, the cow Mozzarella is sweet and creamy all the way through.

Still Fresh?
You can tell if the cheese is fresh by cutting it. If the cheese let’s out a few droplets of buttermilk when you cut it, it is fresh.
