Mozzarella and ricotta making kit

Rennet, citric acid, cheese salt, a reusable thermometer and cheesecloth — enough for four batches, which the maker puts at about 6 lb of cheese. Add milk and a pot.

Why it’s unusual

Fresh mozzarella takes about an hour in an ordinary kitchen. Stretching warm curd by hand is the part people remember.

Who it suits

Good for

Pizza nights, curious cooks, and couples looking for a weekend project.

Skip it if

They’re dairy-free.

Good to know

  • Milk is not included, and some ultra-pasteurized milk won’t form curds — check the kit’s guidance.
