Description

Participants in this class learn how both Fresh Mozzarella and Fresh Ricotta are made. Upon arrival, students dress to make cheese by donning aprons and hairnets. This event begins with a Behind-The-Scenes Tour of the cheese factory.
Once the tour is complete, a discussion follows focusing upon the traditional methods of making mozzarella and ricotta, as well as other cheeses. Participants are given a block of Fresh Mozzarella Curd, and they learn how to stretch and form many varieties of mozzarella such as balls, bocconcini, mozzarella rolls, and Queso Oaxaca. Participants also learn how to make Fresh Ricotta. This event concludes with A Wine and Cheese Tasting of award-winning cheeses produced by the Mozzarella Company.

Guests are advised to wear waterproof shoes with non-slip soles. Each participant receives a Mozzarella Company apron to wear and take home. The participants also divide up the cheeses that they have made during the class to take home.
