Fresh Mozzarella & Burrata-$75

Hand Pulled Fresh Mozzarella & Burrata 

$75.00 per person*

Make everyone’s favorite cheese for yourself*.

We’ll start with a discussion on sourcing and selecting the cheese curd, [no, you won't be curdling the milk yourself, that's a science experiment], then dive right into the hot water, literally. You’ll melt the curd in 170-degree salty water and learn how to retrieve it, pull it, stretch it, squeeze it and form it into the perfect ball. Once you’ve mastered that, you’ll make the delicate stuffed version, Burrata. The favorite variety of the favorite cheese.

Just to keep the hands-on Italian experience going, you’ll make an accompaniment. How about a beautiful tomato basil salad, or a panzanella, maybe some salty olive tapenade or traditional basil pesto.
