And of course, the final product. Needed more salt (I used 1 tsp of the "cheese salt" included in the kit), but was delicious nonetheless. Texture was perfect - firm, but not rubbery.

Yepper, I was eating it less than an hour after I started. Instant, delicious gratification
And KuntyBrew, if it helps I treated it like I do when making a boule from bread dough - develop surface tension by stretching it, then folding it to the back. Turn 90 degrees, repeat until smooth and uniform.

Save the whey and you can make ricotta. When I make mozzarella I make a double batch so I'll have plenty of whey for ricotta. Then I use half the mozzarella and all the ricotta to make lasagna.

Where'd the kit come from? I'd love my first attempt at this to be successful.
