Mozzarella Master Angelo Pelosi has been stretching fresh mozza for 50 years. Click to watch him in action<\/a>.
<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>Have you ever seen how fresh mozzarella is made and stretched until it is butter-soft, milky and velvety? Have you inhaled the creamy aroma?<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the upcoming Artisan Cheese Night Market<\/a>, Mozzarella Master Angelo Pelosi will demonstrate the ancient craft that he first learned more than 50 years ago in his native Puglia, the capital of fresh Mozzarella in Italy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Angelo came to Canada to make cheese for the Borgo family at Quality Cheese<\/a> in Vaughan, Ontario, a half-century ago. Now retired, he still enjoys coming to Quality Cheese to help train the next generation of Pasta Filata specialists and help out when things get busy.<\/p>\n

Angelo will be stretching Mozzarella with cow\u2019s milk. He also makes Trecche with fresh arugula, a classic recipe from Puglia. Angelo does private hand-stretching functions for weddings and food events as a side business.<\/p>\n

At the Night Market, Angelo will demonstrate the craft at 2:00 p.m. during Session 1 and at 3:30 p.m. during Session 2, in booth space adjacent to Quality Cheese where the freshly made mozzarella will be sold to consumers.<\/p>\n

Trecche<\/strong> or Treccia<\/strong> is a traditional braided shape made from fresh Mozzarella.<\/p>\n
