Scamorza Cheese- made in USA

Scamorza is a semi soft cheese made from fresh whole milk and is lightly salted. Scamorza melts very well and is delicious as a pizza topping and table cheese


 

Scamorza is an Italian, spun cow’s milk cheese . Shaped similar to a provolone in a pear shape, its a semi-soft white cheese with a texture comparable to that of a firm, dry Mozzarella, Scamorza

The cheese is made from pasteurized cow’s milk or from a mixture of cow . At the end of the cheese making process, which is akin to Mozzarella, the cheeses are hanged together in strings to ripen for about two weeks. The process of ripening the cheese has given Scamorza its name, which in southern Italy means ‘beheaded’ - the top of the ball.

The texture of Scamorza is elastic, stringy and has less moisture than Mozzarella. In addition, the flavor is more piquant, milky and creamy and perfect for melting

Since traditional Scamorza is an excellent melting cheese of course it is great on top of pizza or in lasagna or as we eat it here at Fortuna's just sliced with a piece of mild salami,

    Scamorza Cheese Order

    Published by Bob Salvatori on Apr 10th 2021

    I was please to be able to order Calabro Scamorza cheese from Fortuna's. We used it to make my grandmother's "Baked Macaroni" recipe for Easter. I hadn't been able to find Scamorza locally so I found it online at Fortuna's. It arrived in excellent condition in just a couple of days . The service, and the cheese, were excellent!! Thanks Fortuna's!!

    When making wood fired and brick oven pizzas, mixing the cheeses gives an amazing richness and added depth to the pies. Fortuna's scamorza cheese is our go to. Why? It is absolutely amazing. Perfection by the lb!

    Hard to find product where I live

    Published by Bernard Harris on Nov 24th 2020

    The Scamorza cheese is excellent. I grew up in a heavily influenced Italian city, and Scamorza was common and easy to get. I now live in small town rural Illinois, and the cheese is non existent. So, being able to get it from a great seller and a quality product is wonderful. The product didn't disappoint. Tastes incredible on my made from scratch pizza. Wish it didn't cost so much, but glad I have a source for it.
