Review: This mozzarella is the same kind of cheese but a vastly different product as the Bel Gioioso mozzarella that comes in ball form in the tubs. I find that it tastes a bit better and has a softer consistency in big clump form like this. Perhaps it is because it hasn’t been rolled around in a machine at some processing plant as much or maybe it is simply because not as much surface area has been exposed to water for its shelf life. Perhaps it is because Mozzarella Fresca is the superior cheesemaker. Either way, I think I may start purchasing my mozzarella like this rather than in the tub. It is the same amount of cheese, but the tub offers such an illusion of more. Quality over quantity, as my seventh grade history teacher used to repeat ad infinitum. Quality over quantity. Bel Gioioso is still not the best quality mozzarella I’ve had, but it is perhaps the best quality I can afford on a regular basis.
