    In Italy, the cheese is produced nationwide using Italian buffalo milk under the government's official name mozzarella di latte di bufala because Italian buffalo are found in all Italian regions. Only the specific type mozzarella di bufala campana PDO is produced in the area reaching from Rome in Lazio to Paestum near Salerno in Campania, and there are also production areas in the province of Foggia, in Puglia, and in Venafro, Molise.

    I had taken a break from home Cheesemaking, but recently gotten back into it. I got into it originally simplyfrom watching your videos. I’m back at it, and back to your videos and so very happy to see you still have your amazing energy and enthusiasm! ❤

    The buffalo milk is cheaper than raw milk, where I am. Looks great.

    You are the best, Gavin, thank you for your recipees!
    The cow milk is 0,75 dollar and the buffalo milk is 1,5 dollars in my country :)

    Hi Gavin you always impress me I'm definitely going to try this one,I used to buy my buffalo milk from that's Amore cheese it was $100 for 20 Litre , The milk is much nicer than cow's milk,I found that you get a better curd mass of the Buffalo milk then you do with the cows.P,S i found
    himalayan salt is a lot saltier than white salt too.
    this is what I found, As pink salt often has larger crystals than table salt, it technically contains less sodium per teaspoon. It also has a saltier flavor than table salt, meaning that a person can use less salt in a serving to achieve the same taste.

    make some Ph-paper yourself.
    get some construstion paper or blotting paper (colorless) and red cabbage, cut the red cabbage and get the juice out of it. drench the papers in the juice and thoroughly dry them and then keep them in a sealable plastic bag (to prevent remoisturization).
    red cabbage reacts to PH changes, dip them in some salt water or lemon water and watch them go.

    Sous vide cooker in the sink makes for a nice double boiler, took me a second look to catch that.

    🤩 Wow, I am so pleased to see you could make this great video, Gavin! I can get buffalo milk here in Halifax NS, but its availability is a bit hit-and-miss & it’s 💸double the cost💸of your own buffalo milk. Notwithstanding, I *will* make this cheese someday!
    QQQ A couple of questions:
    - What did you do with that first bit of stretch-test curd? Back in the pot, maybe?
    - When the gloves get too hot, would it be a bad idea to dip them in cold water to cool them quickly? There could even be a dedicated bowl just for glove-dipping.
    - Could the mozzarella balls be vacuum-packed?

    • @GavinWebber
      @GavinWebber  11 месяцев назад +1

      Hi Patricia. Cheers. In answer to your questions; 1. Yes, back in the pot to acidify more. 2. Yes, good idea, I've done that in previous mozz videos, but didn't feel the need for it this time. 3. Yes it can be vacuum packed without issues. Thanks for watching and your support over these many years!

    I love me some buffalo mozzarella I like soft and semi hard cheese and I love blue cheese and on occasion really aged cheese got to be in the mood for it though.

  • @persnikitty3570
    @persnikitty3570 11 месяцев назад

    Need to try this, as its been a nemesis for a while. It's the acidity: I'll figure it out eventually.

    Gavin, I know you've mentioned this before, but I've forgotten. 😮 do you turn your sou vide all the way up to the temperature desired? And it takes 45 minutes to reach that temperature or do you do it gradually?? Tia and job well done 👏🏼 🧀

    • @GavinWebber
      @GavinWebber  11 месяцев назад

      Yes I do! but I still keep an eye on it. As the time was quite long, I increased it in 3C increments.

    When you say whole milk...., what do you mean? Is it etc Coles Full cream homogenized pasteurized milk? Thanks

    • @GavinWebber
      @GavinWebber  9 месяцев назад +1

      Well in this case it is Buffalo milk, but where I mention whole milk, it's full cream milk.

    This name infringement nonsense leads to a heck of a lot of mouthfulls. Poor Gavin. The mozzarella looks superb. I though prefer the nice creamy milk with a bowl of nice cinnamony cereals over the labour . Cheers 🧀

    The PDO conceptually sucks tbh. This is the real thing, because there is not one way to make a real thing, just as there is no one PLACE to make most things

    Could raw jersey milk be used in place of the buffalo milk?

  • @cgourin
    @cgourin 11 месяцев назад +1

    I don't get why DOP would have a problem if you are not selling it trying to pretend it's the original protected product. There is no misleading into what you are doing and the recipe is such that who ever will reproduce it will not impact in any way the sales. But I'm not a lawyer.

    No buffalo milk here, fat content is similar to sheep so you can sub that
