Sheep and Goat Mozzarella
DESCRIPTION: the sheep and goat mozzarella has a pure white color. Soft and juicy, with a sweet, decisive and slightly acidic taste. It is a product that is difficult to process due to the no predisposition of sheep and goat milk to spinning but which invites we to do it due to its uniqueness and clear difference from its “cousins” fior di latte and buffalo mozzarella.
FOOD PAIRING
It can be consumed alone or with the addition of extra virgin olive oil and salt that enhance its flavor. Recommended for the preparation of delicious mixed or caprese salads.
PROCESSING
The fresh milk from the morning milking and the previous evening is collected and brought to the dairy, heated to a temperature of 38°C, is inoculated with lactic ferments and subsequently curdled. For the production of this cheese, the milk is not pasteurized. Once the curd is obtained, it is broken into a nut and left to mature under whey for about three hours. It is then cut into strips and spun with 3% salted water at a temperature of 85°C and cut by hand. It is transferred to the preserving liquid and placed for consumption the next day after processing.
