History of the mozzarella cheese
Legend
has it that mozzarella was first made when cheese curds accidentally
fell into a pail of hot water in a cheese factory near Naples…and
soon thereafter the first pizza was made! Actually, new cheeses
are often formulated when mistakes happen, so there well may
be truth in the tale! Mozzarella was first made in Italy near
Naples from the rich milk of water buffalos. Because it was
not made from pasteurized milk and because there was little
or no refrigeration the cheese had a very short shelf-life
and seldom left the southern region of Italy near Naples where
it was made. As cheese technology, refrigeration and transportation
systems developed the cheese spread to other regions of Italy.
However, to this day it is widely known that the best and
most highly prized artiginally produced buffalo mozzarella
is still found south of Naples near Battipaglia and Caserta
where small factories continue centuries-old traditions making
buffalo mozzarella fresh daily for their local customers who
line up at the factories to buy the freshly made delicacy.
