Mozzarella, Burrata and Stracciatella Masterclass

In this hands-on cheese making class you will learn how to make (and go home with!) milky soft pillows of mozzarella and the best of the stretched curd cheeses including:

burrata - everyone's favourite bundle of deliciousness, with an oozy filling of creamy stracciatella

stracciatella - fine stringy strands of mozzarella, mixed with cream and salt. The decadent filling of burrata

This intimate class starts with a chat about how the day will unfold and then it’s time to roll up your sleeves and feel your whey through the curds. We work in small groups so there’s usually plenty of banter and laughter and time for one-on-one attention.

By lunchtime, as we sit around a table, stories and favourite recipes are shared and then with a smile and a full belly, it’s back into the kitchen to start stretching our curds.

And what makes my cheese making classes all the more special and insightful, I’ll give you an abundance of recipes and remedies for the leftover whey. You’ll be taking it home by the bucket load!

Suitable for: absolute beginners with the busiest of lifestyles and the smallest of urban kitchens, passionate home cooks and experienced chefs.

Please ensure you wear closed shoes.

Bring your favourite apron to wear and 5 x 1L containers, some jars for the leftover whey & bag to take home your cheese.

Minimum age 15.
