Few cheeses have captured the world’s imagination quite like mozzarella. It is both ancient and modern, humble and luxurious- a cheese that feels equally at home in a rustic trattoria in Naples as it does on a chef’s tasting menu in New York. With its supple texture, delicate creaminess, and remarkable versatility, mozzarella has become one of the most beloved ingredients in global cuisine.
But while most of us are used to buying mozzarella wrapped in plastic at the grocery store, the truth is that this cheese was never meant to sit on shelves. Traditionally, mozzarella di bufala was made at dawn in southern Italy and eaten the very same day, its milky sweetness still alive and vibrant. The difference between that and the pre-packaged versions we know is night and day.
Now, thanks to fromaggio- the world’s first smart home cheesemaker- you can experience that difference for yourself, in your own kitchen, without the years of training or precision thermometers once required.
Mozzarella made simple with fromaggio
Classic mozzarella demands careful heating, hand-stretching, and timing that borders on artistry. In professional kitchens and small Italian dairies, cheesemakers practice for years to perfect the technique. At home, that process has always been daunting — until now.
Fromaggio brings that tradition into the 21st century. In addition to the option to create custom recipes, the machine comes pre-programmed with two authentic recipes:
-
quick mozzarella — ready in just 2 hours, ideal for spontaneous weeknight dinners when only bubbling, fresh mozzarella will do.
-
cultured mozzarella — a slower method that develops deeper, more traditional flavor and texture, reminiscent of the mozzarella found in Campania.
All you need is fresh milk and our ready-to-use ingredients. Add them to the machine, press start, and fromaggio takes care of the rest — heating, culturing, and stretching with scientific precision. The result? Consistently perfect mozzarella, no mess, no stress.
Why mozzarella rules the culinary world
There’s a reason mozzarella is the most consumed fresh cheese on the planet. Its mild creaminess makes it endlessly adaptable, yet it has enough character to stand alone.
-
In Italy, it is revered in the caprese salad — a deceptively simple trio of mozzarella, tomato, and basil that celebrates purity of flavor.
-
In France, mozzarella often appears on seasonal tarts or alongside charcuterie.
-
In the U.S., it’s the soul of pizza, the cheese that gives that iconic stretch in every slice.
Beyond borders, mozzarella has become a universal language of comfort. And when it’s freshly made — as you’ll discover with fromaggio — the taste is worlds apart: softer, creamier, with a sweet lactic finish that no store-bought version can replicate.
Ways to savor your homemade mozzarella
Once you have fresh mozzarella at your fingertips, the possibilities unfold like a feast:
-
caprese, elevated — pair your homemade mozzarella with heirloom tomatoes, a drizzle of aged balsamic, and flaky sea salt.
- make burrata at home — take your mozzarella further by creating burrata: a delicate pouch of mozzarella filled with cream and curds, the ultimate centerpiece for any cheese plate
-
authentic pizza night — top a blistered Neapolitan crust with your cheese, fresh basil, and a swirl of olive oil.
-
comforting pasta bakes — layer into lasagna, stuffed shells, or eggplant parmigiana for bubbling, golden richness.
-
seasonal indulgence — melt into autumn butternut squash soups, winter gratins, or spring asparagus frittatas.
-
cheese boards reimagined — roll your mozzarella into bite-sized bocconcini and serve with prosciutto, roasted peppers, and rustic bread.
With fromaggio, you can create not just one cheese, but endless dining experiences — from casual family meals to dinner-party showstoppers.
Fresh cheese, on demand
Buying mozzarella at the supermarket means compromising on freshness. By the time it reaches your kitchen, it’s already traveled miles and lost much of its delicate character. With fromaggio, you reclaim control. You can have mozzarella that was made mere hours ago — supple, fragrant, alive.
The first bite of truly fresh mozzarella is unforgettable: a soft give under the fork, a gentle release of cream, and a clean, milky sweetness that lingers. It’s the flavor of tradition, captured in the most modern way.
Your mozzarella journey starts now
Cheesemaking at home once required skill, patience, and specialized equipment. Today, fromaggio places that heritage into your hands with the press of a button. Whether you’re crafting a quick mozzarella for a last-minute pizza night or a cultured version for an elegant gathering, fromaggio ensures perfection every time.
It’s more than just making cheese. It’s bringing an ancient craft back to life in your kitchen- fresh, authentic, and entirely yours.
