I used to buy Bel Gioioso at Costco, but they recently replaced it with Kirkland brand that has a strange flavor. In France, I buy Galbani 1:16 , but it's packaged differently (in liquid), and I can't find it here. Why didn't Galbani 1:16 end up on the tasting table?

Packaged, shelf stable mozzarellas in the US, whether labeled fresh or low moisture, are legally defined mostly by their fat and moisture content. In Italy, "mozzerella" is *just* fresh mozzarella. The more shelf stable, packaged "fresh" mozzarella in the US is a somewhat different from the made in-house mozzarella you can get at the deli or cheesemonger here or in Italy. And our "low moisture" mozzarella was legally defined in the 60s along with "pizza cheese". And it's more akin to a shortly aged scamorza in Italy.

I appreciate your dedication to rigorous research. Also I haven’t tried the brand that you describe as a “wet sponge”. That said, actual good mozzarella - as opposed to what they sell in American supermarkets - should be wet and slightly spongy. It should drip milk and fall apart in your hand. I may have to try this Di Stefano. It’s sounds like they’re doing something right.

After isolating each ingredient, it was the cheese. So I did a Google search on bitter mozzarella. And yup, there it is. Mozzarella can be bitter. Well, this one was. And it was nowhere near its expiration date. So, I don't know how this can be the best. Yuck!

Not long after I moved to Italy, I realized that American versions of Italian food are mostly mislabelled crap. "Ricotta" isn't ricotta. "Mozzarella" isn't mozzarella. Parmesan is most definitely not Parmigiano Reggiano. "Pizza" isn't pizza. "Gelato" isn't gelato. A "macchiato" isn't a macchiato. American producers generally use cheap ingredients and processes, then stick an Italian name on it. The really irritating thing is that they often mislabel products for which there are more accurate Italian names (e.g., fiore di latte, ricottone). To see the same crime in reverse, order barbecue in Italy.

@@varasanoJeff, I respect you. But I implore you to look into the mythology of Italian food also. They're just as capable as us, if not more so, in inventing mythology and BSing about their food history for their brands. Us Italian Americans are *far* more responsible for what's popular about Italian food worldwide than mainlanders are, especially pizza and pasta. Food historians Katie Parla and Luca Cesari both have books on this. Luca put out a pizza book in July 2023. And Alberto Grandi has a whole podcast dedicated to myth busting Italian food mythology.

Fresh mozzarella is only white if titanium dioxide is added to mask the natural yellow color of cooked milk.
@varasano3 жыл бұрын
@@alphonsis6183 none of these products have titanium dioxide added and their color varies from white to yellow. If you watch any video on making mozzarella you can see it go from a cow to very very white mozzarella in just minutes with no additives. There are three factors that can make it a little yellow. Cheeses that are dryer, which often means aged longer, are going to be more yellow. Also the cow's diet can vary the color. And finally the production process can vary the amount of butterfat remaining in the curds. However to be very clear, most mozzarella at its freshest and best is almost pure white. In the picture at a 1:15 you can see that the Crave Brothers is the yellowest. That's because they selected a crave Brothers product in the log which is much drier. they kind of screwed crave Brothers in this tasting because they weren't really comparing apples to apples. You can see there are three packs: in fresh whey, ball packed, and log packed. The whey is the best of course. All of these brands make multiple versions and they kind of screwed crave here by pitting their log pack (which is worse for all of those brands), vs other packs
