Fior di Latte

The everyday cheese of the Sorrento Peninsula. Our Fior di Latte is made from cow’s milk worked fresh every morning and stretched by hand: soft, juicy, with the sweet taste of fresh milk.

Three shapes

• Fior di latte (500 g): the classic mozzarella shape.
• Braid (700 g): to bring to the table whole and cut as you serve.
• Tortano (1 kg): the large traditional ring shape, for big gatherings.

How to enjoy it

• Raw, with tomato, basil and olive oil: take it out of the fridge 30 minutes before.
• On pizza or in gnocchi alla sorrentina: cut it into pieces and let it drain for a few hours first, so it doesn’t release water.

How is it different from buffalo mozzarella? Here are the differences. And to keep it fresh: how to store it.
