Making rich, delicious Mozzarella is really a whiz

With a gallon of milk and a few basic kitchen tools, you can make mouth-watering mozzarella cheese in less than an hour.

“I love mozzarella. You can do it with kids and it’s quick,” says Fresh Abundance owner BrightSpirit Hendrix, who will be teaching a cheese-making class at her nonprofit community farm later this month.

Making mozzarella at home is fun and relatively simple. While the technique is straightforward, precision is important. Pay attention to temperature and timing, and be sure to follow the directions, says Hendrix.
