Mozzarella di bufala

We had to reserve to buy a kilo. They only sell there and always sell out. But a kilo?

Bags of the water they process in and they throw some hand cut balls approximately to weight.

And we found another bottle of the good wine from Campania for only 12:euro. That’s a lottsa mozzarella! We will share with Domenico the owner of casa rubini as he has been so kind to drive us around. And he gave us wine and limoncello from his bar and wouldn’t accept payment. So kind.

Tenuto vannulo organic water buffalo farm

We toured the water buffalo farm and watched them make mozzarella. Quite a manual process. They finish by noon and only sell there. They also make yoghurt and ice cream. The cows have a relaxation room where the cows can get bottle brush massages and listen to classical music. They go into the milking stall and infrared finds the teats for milking. Then off to feeding. We bought a kilo to take home.
