Hello again folks,
I going to try mozzarella again, but I have some questions about the recipe on this site.
I have some unflavored yogurt (with live cultures), is that the same thing as a thermophillic culture? For a gallon of milk, how much yogurt? Can I use buttermilk? If so, how much, and is it easier/better than yogurt? Also, the recipe says that if the ph isn't right, it won't "spin". What is this "spin"? How do you do it? Thanks for all of your help.
Two other things: for the brine solution, what are the proportions?. and, I thought that salt was added to the curd to promote stretching.
