In Battipaglia the "Bentley" of buffalo mozzarella
Dear reader,
Today we present to you a highly esteemed producer of one of the most famous delicacies in southern Italy: buffalo mozzarella.
First, let's clarify what buffalo mozzarella is and what sets it apart from regular mozzarella, also known as fior di latte.
What is Buffalo Mozzarella?
Buffalo mozzarella is a stretched-curd cheese produced exclusively with buffalo milk, while fior di latte is produced with cow's milk.
This cheese is produced in various regions of Italy, such as Lazio, Molise, Puglia, but the most famous comes from Campania, where the dairy "La Antica Mozzarella di Battipaglia" is located.
It can have different shapes: sphere, bite-sized, braid, pearl, cherry, knot, and egg.
The smooth surface has a porcelain white color, and the crust generally does not exceed one millimeter.
Cheese manufacturer La Antica Mozzarella di Battipaglia
This dairy, which embraces the traditions and processes of Campanian artisan dairies, is an entrepreneurial project of "quality and memory" and at the same time a territorial marketing operation that focuses on Battipaglia as the capital of buffalo mozzarella, located between the Amalfi Coast and Cilento, the latter being the home of the Mediterranean Diet.
It is the exciting story of suggestions from the past to relive today, a true emotional journey into the "world of buffalo."
As for the brand, the large "B," uppercase letter, placed in the center of a black circle that extends to the left, defining the outlines of the buffalo's horns, stands for Buona (Good), Bufala (Buffalo), Battipaglia.
The colors of the brand are, of course, white like milk, in contrast to the black color representing the buffalo.
The goal is to recover, protect, and enhance the ancient art of Battipaglia Mozzarella production.
Tradition passed down from generation to generation by master cheese makers who start processing freshly milked milk every morning;
The spinning, manual extraction, and the sweet and sour aroma of buffalo milk that explodes in your mouth with the first bite.
Among the various cheeses offered to customers in Italy and abroad, we find:
- Mozzarella
- Burrata
- Ricotta
- Braided Mozzarella
- Stracchino
Certification from the Ministry of Agriculture
La Antica Mozzarella di Battipaglia, which we are pleased to host in Eggify in the section dedicated to cheese and dairy producers, is a brand created, protected, and registered by its founder Vincenzo Inverso.
He tells us, "We applied the specification to the Ministry of Agriculture to obtain certification.
This means reviving the old Battipaglia mozzarella every day with taste and goodness on tables worldwide and putting their production back at the center of the territorial economy.
"It's a vast project for the territory – emphasizes Inverso – that intertwines and strengthens with my commitment to the Cilento, Vallo di Diano and Alburni National Park.
This project promotes Battipaglia and at the same time, time passes for the Park, which guards the Mediterranean Diet, in whose food pyramid, mozzarella is recognized as a product of excellence."
A project that is the strength of a dream to be realized and handed down to the generations of tomorrow: "I dedicate it to my son Antonio, to his generation!
Strong in its roots and in the great human, technological, and scientific achievements of our time, so that it can safeguard and enhance more and more this unique and ancient excellence of our land, take it by the hand and lead it towards the future."
