Reserving the name of Mozzarella, as tradition dictates, only for fresh pasta filata made from buffalo milk, the term “Fiordilatte” (for which a protected designation of origin has been applied for) designates the much better known and more widespread cow's pasta filata, introduced a few decades ago to make up for the scarcity of buffalo milk. This is an artisanal production, where spinning the dough by hand ensures a final result that is not “rubbery” and leathery.
Chef's Advice
-
Pizza: Mozzarella fior di latte is the main ingredient in pizza margherita and other pizza varieties. Its ability to melt without losing too much water makes it ideal for achieving a stringy, creamy texture.
-
Caprese: Another popular use is in the Caprese salad, where mozzarella is combined with ripe tomatoes, fresh basil and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. This dish enhances the simplicity and quality of fresh ingredients.
-
Fried: Mozzarella can also be breaded and fried, resulting in the so-called mozzarella in carrozza or mozzarella sticks, perfect as appetizers crispy outside and stringy inside.
When great-grandfather Luigi Guffanti began aging Gorgonzola in 1876, his genius intuition was the purchase of an abandoned silver mine in Valganna, in the province of Varese. Five generations have passed, the attention to the artisanal quality of the cheese product and the passion for careful ripening continue to characterize the Guffanti-Fiori family, consolidated to this day as one of the best ripeners in the world.
