How Do You Make Organic Mozzarella Cheese At Home?
Many people love the taste of fresh, organic mozzarella cheese, but co-op price tags can leave a bad taste in your mouth! Save some money and wow your friends and family by learning to make mozzarella for yourself using this simple recipe. Head to a local co-op and pick up a gallon of pasteurized milk. Most milk at co-ops is already certified organic, but for the best-tasting mozzarella you want milk from grass-fed cows. It’s a little more expensive, but you’ll get your investment back tenfold in taste (and good karma)! Pour your milk into a large metal pot and put it on the stove with the heat on medium. Measure out 1.5 teaspoons of citric acid into 1/4 cup of bottled water. Stir very well, making sure that the citric acid is completely dissolved into the water. Pour the citric acid mixture into the milk and stir it in with the slotted spoon. As your milk and citric acid mixture heats up, your may notice that the texture of the milk changes – this is exactly what you want to happen! U
