Organic Raw Cow's Milk Mozzarella Amano

This Organic Raw Cow's Milk Mozzarella isn't just any dairy product, but the result of "a lot of attention," as the producer likes to call it. Made in Fiumicino within a very short and controlled supply chain, it's made exclusively from raw milk from a single milking. The decision not to pasteurize the milk allows the rich aroma of the pastures and the natural microbial biodiversity to be preserved intact, giving the finished product an intense, sweet, and complex flavor that industrial mozzarellas can't replicate.
The transformation process is a tribute to patience and craftsmanship. Freshly milked milk is enriched with the previous day's whey (known as "whey starter"), natural rennet, and salt. No acidity regulators are added, just time: the slow acidification of the curd in the whey is the secret to its perfect texture. Stretching and cutting are done strictly by hand, giving each bite the supple, juicy texture that distinguishes true artisanal mozzarella.

The roots of this mozzarella are deep in tradition

The technique used for this mozzarella revives the ancestral methods of stretched-curd cheesemaking. The use of whey starter, a practice that has almost disappeared from mass production due to the lengthy processing time it requires, is essential for developing the cheese's unique aromatic bouquet. The manual "mozzatura," the precise movement with which the cheesemaker "cuts" the stretched-curd cheese to form the sphere, is an art that requires mastery and experience, ensuring that the outer skin is shiny and protective while the center remains soft and milky.

Choosing Raw Milk Mozzarella means taking care of yourself

In addition to its superior organoleptic profile, the raw milk processing and slow natural fermentation make this mozzarella highly digestible. The natural biological processes that occur during acidification pre-digest part of the lactose and proteins, making the product light on the stomach. Furthermore, being certified organic, it is free of synthetic chemical residues, offering a pure product, rich in calcium and live enzymes that promote intestinal health.

How to Best Use: Organic Raw Cow's Milk Mozzarella

• GOURMET WINTER CAPRESE

Forget the usual caprese salad. Cut the mozzarella into slices and alternate them not with fresh tomatoes, but with a pinch of ORGANIC SPICY DRIED TOMATO CREAM 100GThe intensity of the dried tomatoes enhances the sweetness of the raw milk. Finish with a generous swirl of VAL DI MAZARA 2020 ORGANIC DOP IGP EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL for a chef's dish.

• MEDITERRANEAN CROSTONE

For a quick but tasty lunch, place the mozzarella on a slice of toasted homemade bread and let it soften slightly. Add the CETARA ANCHOVIES IN OIL 195GThe saltiness of the anchovies creates a perfect contrast with the softness of the mozzarella, in a classic combination from the Campania tradition.

• PURE AND SIMPLE APERITIF

Enjoy it pure, cut into cubes, accompanied only by ORGANIC TARALLI – TRADITIONALThe crunchiness of the tarallo and the flavor of the fresh cheese are the ideal pairing to appreciate the quality of the raw material, perhaps while sipping a light red wine.
