This soft-copied but never duplicated gem is a fresh, drawn-curd cheese made from buffalo's milk. Most people don't know what water buffalo milk tastes like, but upon the first bite it is unmistakable that this legendary cheese is made from an unfamiliar milk. It is porcelain-white in color, spherical in shape, and has a very thin, glossy, edible rind.
 
Mozzarella di Bufala has a springy texture and a pleasantly sourish taste with a faint mossy smell, reminiscent of the humid grazing fields of Campania in southern Italy. If you've never had the real Mozzarella before, it's definitely time you tasted this sublime delicacy.
