Many thanks to Kathy Love in Tucson, Arizona for sharing her pictures from a demonstration she did showing how to make 30 minute mozzarella in a slow cooker. This will be of special interest to those of you who use a pH meter, (totally optional) because you can see her calibrating it in these pictures. She used the recipe at our website (cheesemaking.com) which is
Donna Sprankle: Making Mozzarella in Her Instant Pot
Well, this is something new! We were intrigued when we got this note from Donna Sprankle in Ballston Spa, New York: Just wanted to send a thank you. Made my 1 st batch of mozzarella (using my instant pot pressure cooker) and it came out great! Hard to believe that the curds turn into mozzarella! Thanks for making the ingredients available. A quick look at
David Jacob’s Mozzarella Recipe
Mozzarella is probably the cheese most frequently made by home cheese makers, due, in part, to our 30 Minute Mozzarella Kit. We were the first of many companies to base a kit on the quick and easy way to make this popular cheese. We share our recipes for both the 30 minute (click here) and the traditional (click here) ways of making Mozzarella in our
Making Mozzarella with an Induction Cooktop
Cateland White in Las Vegas, Nevada has written several fabulous articles* for us because she is an amazing writer and we adore her! This summer, she and her husband and their 11 year old, Bugsy (whom we adore just as much!) took a road trip to the Pacific Northwest. (We’re hoping she will share pictures of her trip with us, so watch for that soon…)
Cameron Arsenault (16) Making Mozzarella
“It sounds like fun to me!” (And it was!) It seems to us that by now everybody should know how it is easy to make Mozzarella with our 30 minute recipe. After all, we’ve been selling our kit for 17 years! But, alas, there are many people out there who have no idea that they can make their own cheese, and, of course, it’s our
Mozzarella with Non-Fat Milk and Cream
Jessica with her 2 year old daughter and her robot scarecrow I love to find good blog articles about making cheese. The pictures and the first-hand accounts bring the process to life. I feel as if I’m right there in the blogger’s kitchen, having a grand time and learning a new skill. La Dolce Duchessa writes just the kind of blog I love most, with
Emma Reeves and Her Science Project
Emma Reeves Emma Reeves (12) in Orem, Utah is already knowledgeable about the role milk plays in the quality of cheese. For her science project this year, she compared 5 different kinds of milk to see how they performed when making both hard cheese and Mozzarella (see the entire project at the end of this post). Emma’s mother, Lisa, helped her ask Jim Wallace, our
Madi Shaw in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
Madi and Lilly Madi Shaw is truly amazing. She’s a homeschooling student in the seventh grade, but she has already accomplished as much, if not more than most adults. She makes cheese, of course: We love making mozzarella, muenster, cheddar, chevre, and farmstead. We like to add our own herbs to some of the cheese from my brother’s garden, especially basil.
