Once our cheesemakers hand-stretch our mozzarella, the cheese goes for a dunk in a quick brine bath and is then cold-smoked over hay from our partner dairy farms. As the name implies, the cold smoking process relies on smoke created by low heat - a way of imparting flavor without cooking. It was traditionally used as a way to preserve food.
Rather than overwhelming the cheese’s flavor with artificial smoke, traditionally smoking the mozzarella in this way adds subtle nuances of meaty, earthy, campfire-like flavor while still preserving the taste of the cheese itself.
Perfect for use in a caprese salad, grated on a mushroom pizza, or melted on a cheeseburger or grilled cheese, our smoked mozzarella is a fantastic way to add an extra kick of flavor to any cheesy dish!
Caputo Brothers Creamery uses only Animal Welfare Approved, non-GMO feed, pasture-based milk from local, family-owned dairy farms. We are committed to paying a fair price to farmers for the high quality milk they produce!
