Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP is renowned for its exceptional freshness, texture, and rich flavor. This mozzarella is produced entirely by hand, using fresh buffalo milk from the farm, without any industrial processes or preservatives.
The production process includes careful milk curdling, followed by the stages of filatura – stretching the curd – and mozzatura – hand-tearing the curd, resulting in a cheese with an elastic texture and a rich, milky taste. Mozzarella from Vannulo is available in various forms, including classic balls, bocconcini, and braids, and is sold exclusively directly at the farm.
