In the nearby town of Union, New Jersey, the Lioni family stretch their fresh curds to great lengths for these fist-sized parcels of mozz. After generations in business, they've mastered this art of fresh 'pasta-filata' or pulled curd style of cheese-making. The result is delicate and milky - a perfect way to showcase the high quality cows' milk they use from upstate NY. Very fresh and definitely pasteurized. The most authentico choice we've found this side of the Atlantic, ideal with fresh basil and Murray's Italian olive oil.
