Mozarella - Lactose Free

Marcia writes:
Mozzarello has been researched. It is not a cultured cheese and no cheeses are allowed that have not had a bacterial culture work on them. It is not a matter of lactose-free mozarello.

Elaine writes:
XXXXX answered his own question and I remarked about it to him: the mozarello apparently does not show separation (he called it having a lack of grittiness). That can only mean that in the manufacturing process, an emusifier had been used; it is not a real cheese in the true sense of the word. Dr. Haas knew that back in the 1970's but it took me time to find some of the reasons for his advice.
