Hello, ciao!! I am thrilled to fallow your recipes. I am quite a bit of Italian food fan and been into Italian cooking for many years, but I must tell you, your recipes are really unique and taught simply and they are the core of the Italian cooking. Grazie mille for the incredible job!!
thanks so much for this, i have seen many mozzarella recipes for supermarket milk and tried them without success. (still had the fresh cheese as suggested but disappointed) you rock!!
I have made very good Mozzarella from store-bought milk. Instead of adding hot water, we put the curds in the microwave for 15-20 seconds at a time until they can be combined and stretched. I think we added some citric acid to the store-bought milk.
Thanks for doing the side by side comparison. I have access to raw milk so when I try this recipe I will definitely use that and not the store-bought stuff.
I couldn't find rennet, I used the sap from my fig tree instead. ;) This is by far the best video and most accurate on youtube of how to make Mozzarella cheese (after searching for several hours). Thank you!
Bravissimo come sempre. Ti seguo dalla Florida. Sono ormai tren'anni che manco dall'Italia e mi mancano le prelibatezze fatte in casa.

Was wondering abt that, cause a few famous cheesemakers on yt said u shouldn't add CC on mozza as it wouldnt stretch. But maybe a bit of CC won't hurt then?
I just made my mozzarella and the taste is amazing(First time I ate mozzarella) . The process is time consuming but with good company the time flies. The texture reminds me of halloumi cheese so maybe its a similar process but with goat milk. Thank you again for the magnificent recipe !!! Είσαι φοβερός!!! Q:At 23:02 you mean you should wait for better taste 5 days to 1 week for maximum taste or that the cheese expire in 1 week ?
When working in a good Italian deli we bought the curd and melted the mozzarella. Really hot on the hands because we didn't have much time. Nothing compares to fresh mozzarella. Please show us how you make ricotta from the whey. Twice cooked cheese😋
I appreciate that you show us how to make the mozzarella ,just need to get the farmers 🥛 milk, I also like the cheese make with the fig 🍃leaves.very well explained 👌🧀
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato I didn't know caciocavallo was a real thing! In Quebec we've got this big company called Saputo that makes cheese and has cheese names like mozzarellissima just for marketing, so I thought caciocavallo was just another name to make it seem fancy. Glad to know it can be made at home!
A friend of mine works in a milk yard. I've helped him out so many times in the past that I've seen how much milk gets wasted. I think I'm going to do something about that.
If you can only find store bought milk - and so this milk is likely to be pasteurized - you can add about 1/4 t of food grade calcium chloride to the milk and that helps repair the damage done to the milk by pasteurization BUT this will not help if the milk has been ultra high temperature pasteurized to give it a long shelf life.
Ciao from Naples Florida my friend. When using whole milk from the market that has been pasteurized and homogenized, you need to add 1 1/2 teaspoons of citric acid to your milk for each gallon of milk that you use. I am pretty sure that is what your problem was with the store bought milk. Salute.
@@rfzorzi Please forgive me but I just saw your message only 3 years later. Yes you can use lemon juice. Add 4-5 tablespoons of lemon juice for every tablespoon of citric acid. So for each 1 1/2 tablespoons of citric acid that is called for, use 7-7 1/2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Again, I am so sorry for not answering you sooner. 😊
Hello, grazie for the recipe. I was wondering how long i could keep the mozzerela in the fridge? Thanks for the effort you put in these videos, really helpfull!
Amazing video, wonderful channel. All you recipes are pretty easy to follow. Keep up the good job m8. I have one question. In most of the cheese recipes you say "Milk" or "Full fat Milk". I suppose you mean cow milk and not from goat or sheep right? Greetings from Greece
Hi, After making your mascarpone I will now be trying to make the mozzarella. I have a question. You say 2 teaspoon of rennet but only show that you put 1 teaspoon in each pot of milk. So for 5 litres it is 1 teaspoon of rennet? Also, you say 150g of yogurt. Is this for the two pots or is it 150g per 5 litres? Grazie!
I pasteurize my milk at home. There are no regulations here, just getting milk from locals. Also, having seen a patient die of brucellosis, I feel very motivated to avoid that or similar diseases that can be transmitted by milk. There is a reason that laws came about to pasteurize milk! But different countries have different regulations to help avoid those diseases and they don’t always include pasteurization. Since we don’t have those regulations here, and the sanitation around our milk collection and the conditions of the cows is uncertain, we always pasteurize our milk. Heating the milk to 165 F for 15 seconds is pretty quick. After the 15 seconds I put the milk pot into cold water and once it’s down to about 100 F, I bottle and refrigerate it. It lasts about 4-5 days. The fresher milk, even wit the pasteurization definitely makes a difference. When making cheese, I do have better results using a 1/4 tsp of calcium chloride mixed in 1/4 cup water, and added about 5 min before the rennet.
With your mozzarella recipe, I finally succeeded! I use raw milk. Other recipes gave me difficulties. Thank you! It stretches easier. I have a question: can I reuse the 15% salt brine solution (the cold 1L water + 150g salt solution that you put hot mozzarella balls into)? Can I store it in the fridge in a sealed jar after using, adding a little more salt every time I re-use it? Or will the salt-water brine go bad? Do I have to boil it after or before every time I re-use it? Grazie mille.
I appreciate your quick reply as I was planning to make it this week! I am also wondering, would it be possible to use a weaker salt brine (like 5% salt?) and store mozzarellas in there for a few days? I know that you specified the exact brine combination in your video for storing (1 tbsp 15% brine, 1 tbsp whey, 8 tbsp water). Is it better to stick with this solution for storage? // Your other recipes are all so great! Thank you!
Hi they sell raw milk here in Australia and the cream is on top of the bottle, can I use this milk and do I still need to add the cream and yogurt? I find this very easy and usually make my own ricotta so I can’t wait to try this recipe, much love from Australia ❤🇦🇺🥂🙏
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Some people also use white vinegar instead of lemon... have you ever tried? And if the answer is "yes" what was the differences?
so if you add yogurt it doesnt need to be raw milk? i can use store milk with yogurt to make it? UPDATE: oh i guess it didnt work.. so it made ricotta? cottage cheese?
This brings me back to the days I used to make my own cheese including mozzarella 😌 The recipe was sightly different but I enjoyed the result. 🙃 Ma ché cosa è questo sacrilegio a sinistra del cuoco!? La macchina del caffè Nespresso! Dov'è la tua propria Bialetti o Alessi Moka pot? 😣
supermarket milks are pasteurized while farmer milks generally boiled or raw. if you get it raw they say you should boil the milk before using. at 82 celsius milk proteins get denatured so this helps to make harder cheese and yogurt so when you or farmer boil the milk they denature protein already but supermarket milk pasteurized at lower degrees like 60 celsius so theres no denaturation. if you use pasteurized milk its better if you boil it at 82 celsius then wait until it cools back to 42 celsius on its own (dont use basin for cooling let it cool on its own) then add rennet or lemon juice or distilled vinegar.
You can make cottage cheese with the store bought milk instead. Simply add some acid (lemon juice or vinegar) and let the curds form. Then tie up in a towel and squeeze to remove the whey. Place it underwater with some weight on it for a few minutes to compress it into one block.
Unfortunately in Australia it's illegal to buy and sell raw milk. Unless you're good friends with a dairy farmer or someone who owns a milk cow you just can't get hold of it. Thanks for the video, I love seeing the wide range of things you make and you aren't afraid to experiment and possibly fail when doing so. I've shared a couple of your videos with fellow youtube cooks as well.

Ciao, amazing video. It inspired me to try to do mozzarella at home. I have one question, is it any difference in making mozzarella with rennet and thermophilic culture in comparison with mozzarella made with rennet only? Grazie per la risposta ;)
Hi, I just found your channel and this is the first video I have seen so I should say you are awesome. I am into making mozzarella these days so I have seen few receipts on youtube but most of them making mozzarella in 30mins. The only guy who made mozzarella in a different way is you. I will do your receipt this week but I want to ask you about other receipts which keep 30mins. Most of them use vinegar while making mozzarella, do you think it is also mozzarella? It looks like mozzarella but I am not sure.
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Thank you for your reply. I have tried your way but it did not work. I have used fresh milk, yogurt, and rennet but it did not work. I think my rennet does not work. I will change my rennet and I will try it again then I will update my experiences here. Loves from Turkey.
I just tried to make the cheese again and It is success. As I said, my first try was fail because of my rennet and after new rennet I made perfect mozzarella. Thank you for your shared receipt.
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato have you tried dropping pH naturally without adding yogurt? I tried with fresh raw milk alone and after 4 hours the pH was still too high. How long it could take? I also saw in Alex mozzarella video when he went to il Casolare farm in Campaña they say that they add old leftover whey into milk in order to help acidify it.
Great video and so explanatory, thank you. Question, how long shall we soak the mozzarella in the brine? Or, what is the minimum time? As far as I know, rennet is veal origin, but I found that there is also vegetable origin rennet. Does it make any difference on mozzarella?
I always make cheese from tablet rennet, but most tablet rennet are sold one tablet for 100 litter of milk, so you just need to use a very small portion of the tablet, nevertheless, you better check on the package how much to use.
Hello it’s me again. I love all of your video. I was wondering if you ever tried making homemade Simmental can meat because we in America can only get it from Amazon. I wanted to try and make it with beef but I don’t know where to start. I hope you can make a video on how to make it that would be great if you can. Thank you
When I try to make this, using raw milk, it doesn't get elastic in time so I leave it over night and stretch it in the morning, then it is very elastic BUT also the mozzarella becomes very hard and rubbery, not soft and creamy. Is it a problem to leave it in over night for like 10 hours before stretching? The hard mozzarella is fine for pizza because it melts but I'd like to make a nice creamy soft one also...
Good morning from the USA! Could this recipe be used to make scamorza? I know I also need to let sit in salt bath. I enjoy your videos and hope you have some help to make scamorza. Gratzie!
Nice video. The milk from the store is probably homogenized, that's why it doesn't coagulate the way you want it. But now I am curious to know if it's possible to add something that reverses that homogenization. I don't know enough milk/cheese biochemistry but it would be interesting to learn.
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato So I did a quick search on supermarket milk. I googled "can you reverse homogenization". One method is to slowly freeze the milk. Another is to add calcium chloride and use a lot more rennet. I also think pasteurization ruins the milk for cheese making because it denatures the proteins. Honestly, the best option is to get whole milk from a farmer!
Excellent video. Maybe the supermarket fresh milk mozzarella can be made with extra cream. I often make yoghurt at home from double cream milk. The regular supermarket milk does not make proper thick yoghurt. I can’t get fresh farm milk where I live.
nice! i like mozzarella a lot! but recently that one bought in supermarket is worse and worse. i will definitely make some homemade. i can get some raw milk. also maybe if you add more coagulant and some extra acidity maybe it is possible to do it from supermarket milk. i will try it both...
Unfortunately it is not possible to make cheese from UHT milk. It is possible with pasteurized milk, but you need to add calcium chloride. Adding acid to accelerate acidification is the wrong way to do it. The milk needs to ferment.
I suspect the store bought milk is pasteurized. Increasingly store milk is Ultra-pasteurized which increases shelf time but makes it really difficult to make a curd. It breaks something in the milk. In the US the type of pasteurization is on the label.
Hello, thank you very much for the recipe! Do you have an idea of how much mozzarella you get from 5 liters of milk? (did you use 5 liters for each pan?)
Aryn 789 Every farm kept cattle, milked morning and evening every day. Save for straining the straw and dust it was drunk as is and your butter was churned from it also.

With that the process is faster but if you can find raw milk from farmer 😉 you don’t need it
Your recipe says 5 liters. But the little bottle in the video looks much smaller. Is the 5 liters accurate?
5 liters divided in 2 pots
Don’t worry 😉 follow the recipe
Hi, I just found your channel and this is the first video I have seen so I should say you are awesome. I am into making mozzarella these days so I have seen few receipts on youtube but most of them making mozzarella in 30mins. The only guy who made mozzarella in a different way is you. I will do your receipt this week but I want to ask you about other receipts which keep 30mins. Most of them use vinegar while making mozzarella, do you think it is also mozzarella? It looks like mozzarella but I am not sure.
This is the original way of making it 😉
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Thank you for your reply. I have tried your way but it did not work. I have used fresh milk, yogurt, and rennet but it did not work. I think my rennet does not work. I will change my rennet and I will try it again then I will update my experiences here. Loves from Turkey.
😱 ok let us know
I just tried to make the cheese again and It is success. As I said, my first try was fail because of my rennet and after new rennet I made perfect mozzarella. Thank you for your shared receipt.
Spectacular 🤩 thanks for sharing your experience and the video with friends and family 👍🏼
Hi! Thank you for this recipe.
I was wondering could I make cream cheese with Greek yogurt? How should I go about it?
ruclips.net/video/d3xkXOFIsyA/видео.html 😉
Thanks for the video. I have a question: How come you didn't add any citric acid to the milk to reduce PH before adding the rennet?
The pH will drop naturally after 3 or 4 hours
Also the yogurt functions to lower the pH
👍🏼
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato have you tried dropping pH naturally without adding yogurt? I tried with fresh raw milk alone and after 4 hours the pH was still too high. How long it could take? I also saw in Alex mozzarella video when he went to il Casolare farm in Campaña they say that they add old leftover whey into milk in order to help acidify it.
I added yogurt for the fermenters
Yes the whey can help you a lot if you have it.
The first time you can add a teaspoon of lemon juice or wait longer
Great video and so explanatory, thank you. Question, how long shall we soak the mozzarella in the brine? Or, what is the minimum time?
As far as I know, rennet is veal origin, but I found that there is also vegetable origin rennet. Does it make any difference on mozzarella?
20 minutes
Yes different rennet but I think you can use both 😉
Is the ingredients for each pot or split between the two? Wanting to try this and want to make sure the ratios are right
I used 2 liters per pot
cuoredicioccolato thanks. And if I have fresh whole milk (not skimmed or pasteurized) do I still need the heavy cream and yogurt?
In this case it’s not necessary
You need to add calcium chloride to pasteurised milk to get a better curd set.
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼
Home made mozzarella - wow, must be delicious.
🥳👍🏼
Hi, thank you for the video.
Can I make it with tablet rennet?
I tried before to make it but it failed, it was very lose.
Thank you.
Maybe the rennet was too old, not good anymore. It's worked when I've used it with goat milk.
Yes you can but I never tried it
What milk did you use it?
Cow milk
I always make cheese from tablet rennet, but most tablet rennet are sold one tablet for 100 litter of milk, so you just need to use a very small portion of the tablet, nevertheless, you better check on the package how much to use.
@@空天-u3p Thank you very much
Hello it’s me again. I love all of your video. I was wondering if you ever tried making homemade Simmental can meat because we in America can only get it from Amazon. I wanted to try and make it with beef but I don’t know where to start. I hope you can make a video on how to make it that would be great if you can. Thank you
Hi 😉 I will try and you will watch the video but I don’t know when 😬
Ok thank you 👍
😉👍🏼
When I try to make this, using raw milk, it doesn't get elastic in time so I leave it over night and stretch it in the morning, then it is very elastic BUT also the mozzarella becomes very hard and rubbery, not soft and creamy. Is it a problem to leave it in over night for like 10 hours before stretching? The hard mozzarella is fine for pizza because it melts but I'd like to make a nice creamy soft one also...
Probably the problem is the water, too hot
Bravissimo! E che fame a guardare il tuo video 😅 sabato provo pure io!
Brava 👍🏼 facci poi sapere come vengono 😉
when you form the balls try to make a tighter skin then the balls will be less lumpy and means you keep all that cream inside
👍🏼 thanks for the advice
What are your thoughts on Cheddar and parmesan cheese? Is it possible to make?
I will make it one day but smaller dimensions
Good morning from the USA! Could this recipe be used to make scamorza? I know I also need to let sit in salt bath. I enjoy your videos and hope you have some help to make scamorza. Gratzie!
Yes 👍🏼 the idea is similar but I never tried
White vinegar addition will drop the pH fast??
Yes
Hellooo! In Montreal there is not whole milk. What can i substitute the whole milk for? Thanks! your program it"s amazing.
You can add double cream to normal milk 😉
Thanks Im gonna try and let u Know
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato merci beaoucup
😉👍🏼
Hello, can I replace the rennet with lemon or vinegar please?
No for this recipe 😉
cuoredicioccolato I see, thank you very much for the quick answer 🌺
😉
We have Roma tomato we have basil and now ready to eat pizza Margherita Vera thanks 🙏🏻 my friend you’re a legend 👋🇮🇹🇳🇿🦘
🥳👍🏼 spectacular ⚽️🍕
Thank you for the demonstration. can I mix goat milk with cow milk to make mozzarella?
Yes 👍🏼 keep us updated with the tasting
Ben'fatto, bravo! Una domanda: ha provato girare e allungare al bagno maria, e possibile da farlo?
Si volendo 👍🏼 basta non far bollire l’acqua 😉
Very informative..... thanks
😉👍🏼
For supermarket milk, you can use calcium chloride, it's will "repair" milk proteins after pasteurization.
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼
Nice video. The milk from the store is probably homogenized, that's why it doesn't coagulate the way you want it. But now I am curious to know if it's possible to add something that reverses that homogenization. I don't know enough milk/cheese biochemistry but it would be interesting to learn.
Me too I would like to know 😉
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato So I did a quick search on supermarket milk. I googled "can you reverse homogenization". One method is to slowly freeze the milk. Another is to add calcium chloride and use a lot more rennet. I also think pasteurization ruins the milk for cheese making because it denatures the proteins. Honestly, the best option is to get whole milk from a farmer!
Thanks for sharing your research 👍🏼
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato np, I enjoy your videos.
☺️ thanks 👍🏼 please share the videos with your friends and family 😉
hello, I have a question ... how many percent does cream have
From 20 to 40 %
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato hello, can 18% of the cream also be, is it too little and will it be too sour?
Yes 👍🏼 you can
Excellent video. Maybe the supermarket fresh milk mozzarella can be made with extra cream. I often make yoghurt at home from double cream milk. The regular supermarket milk does not make proper thick yoghurt. I can’t get fresh farm milk where I live.
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼
nice! i like mozzarella a lot! but recently that one bought in supermarket is worse and worse. i will definitely make some homemade. i can get some raw milk. also maybe if you add more coagulant and some extra acidity maybe it is possible to do it from supermarket milk. i will try it both...
👍🏼 let us know 😉 especially if you succeed with the supermarket milk because I need the recipe 🤪
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato i hope i will have some time later. i will see, how it will go. if i succeed i will let you know...
Thanks 🤩
Unfortunately it is not possible to make cheese from UHT milk. It is possible with pasteurized milk, but you need to add calcium chloride. Adding acid to accelerate acidification is the wrong way to do it. The milk needs to ferment.
I suspect the store bought milk is pasteurized. Increasingly store milk is Ultra-pasteurized which increases shelf time but makes it really difficult to make a curd. It breaks something in the milk. In the US the type of pasteurization is on the label.
Yes 😫
Would the store bought milk be better if we let the yogurt mix alone for. Few hours before working it?
You can try but I am not sure about 🤔
Spectacular! I really love ricotta, I would love to see you make it, please!

Hello, thank you very much for the recipe! Do you have an idea of how much mozzarella you get from 5 liters of milk? (did you use 5 liters for each pan?)
5 liters in total and you get more or less 1 kg
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato thank you for answering!
👍🏼
this is the best way seen so far
Thanks 😊
This just what i needed!
Bravo 😉
Thanks so much , i will give it a try , hope i succeed
👍🏼 let us know 😉
Could you share a recipe for guanciale please? Keep up the good work
😉 I will in the future
I grew up drinking milk straight from the cow.
How come?! ☺️🤔☺️
Aryn 789 Every farm kept cattle, milked morning and evening every day. Save for straining the straw and dust it was drunk as is and your butter was churned from it also.
👍🏼
Did the cow mind?🤔
@@snipper1ie raw milk has major health benefits theres only some rare times where it could make u sick now it's all pastorized
Maybe soon we can buy "fresh" milk👍
👍🏼 how is it going?
Good video
Thanks ☺️
