Homemade mozzarella cheese is easier to make than you think, and it's a great place to start if you are interested in cheese making.
This project only takes a half of an hour and with Jersey milk, it makes a little less than a pound of cheese.
If you've used this recipe before click the images and a gallery will pop up with the steps for a quick refresher.
To begin, you need:
Whey can be used in bread recipes and added to things like mayonnaise to make them last longer. With bread, substitute whey for a third of the amount of water the recipe calls for.
And now for the fun part!
Heat a pot of water to 185 degrees F.
Dip the curds in the colander into the hot water. When the curds reach 135 degrees F they become elastic and stretchable.
When the curds have combined into a ball, and the ball is stretchable remove the curd from the water and stretch like salt water taffy! Amazing! If it does not stretch easily, return it back to the water and try again.
At this point you can add salt or herbs. Stretch the cheese until it is smooth and shiny.
Now you can shape your cheese into a log, braid, form into bite size pieces, or make string cheese!
When finished shaping your cheese, put in cool water for 5 minutes. Then add ice cubes to the water and leave the cheese in for an additional 15 minutes.
This ice water bath step will allow the cheese to keep its shape. When done, you can eat it or wrap it in plastic wrap and keep it in the refrigerator.
I hope you have enjoyed reading about how to make mozzarella cheese. Now you can enjoy your own homemade mozzarella cheese.
