Fior di Latte Mozzarella

As one of the pioneers of making fresh Italian-style mozzarella "Fior di Latte" or Fresh Mozzarella in water in America, Belfiore remains a family-owned operation. Mozzarella has always been a delicate and difficult to attain cheesemaking art. Curds are stretched when still hot and then formed into small balls and stored in fresh, filtered water. Meant to be eaten within days, the cheese is perfect for sandwiches or as an appetizer.
