Goat-zerella Cheese Pizza
- Dissolve 2 tsp. citric acid in 1/4 c. non-clorinated water. Add 2 tsp. of this solution to 2 gallons cold goat milk and heat in a double boiler over medium heat to 88F
- Add rennet solution: 1/8 rennet tablet dissolved in 1/4 c. non-clorinated water. Stir gently without overly disturbing the forming curds. Then, allow to stand until clear whey separates from curds
- Heat to firm curds over high heat until you get to 110F
- Drain curds: pour gently into a colander and knead into a ball
- Heat and stretch to achieve final texture: Return to whey under high heat (or microwave in 45 sec sessions), kneading periodically - you will want rubber gloves for this so you don't burn your hands
- Add 1 tsp. salt during the last stretching session, then wrap the cheese in plastic and keep it in the fridge
And what do you do with mozzarella cheese but make pizza? I call it goat-zerella!
