WHAT IT TASTES LIKE: Light and refreshing
WHERE IT COMES FROM: The swampy plains around the Volturno river in central Italy are the ideal spot to graze water buffalo, which have been resident in Italy for centuries, though who brought them is up for debate. Either way, rich buffalo milk is ideal for mozzarella, with its elastic texture and creamy subtlety. Buffalo mozzarella is made around the world these days but its traditional home is the central Italian region – cheese labelled Mozzarella di bufala campana shows it is the real deal and has protected status.
