Raw milk Water Buffalo Zizzona. (Giant mozzarella serves 4-6)
Zizzona is a rarity. This is only found at No2 Pound Street. It is simply a huge mozzarella ball. When our head of cheese met Jonathan he suggested the idea of making them. The idea of this originally comes from Campania, Italy. Zizzona literally means in Campanian dialect, a mother’s milky breast. It’s taste is much like mozzarella with citrusy, creamy, sour cream and grassy, yogurty notes. However the immense size of this cheese allows it to hold more liquid milk. When you gently tear open a Zizzona sweet buffalo milk adds another dimension.
This is a must for a family occasion as a centre piece. Serve with fresh aromatic basic, Italian lemon, rich ripe plum tomatoes, with a green peppery olive oil a drizzle of aged balsamic and some fine sea salt, tear the Zizzona open and boom! what a fabulous family and friends starter.

At 350g this is the largest mozzarella made in the UK from the finest west country buffalo milk… In fact, an Italian customer of ours asked for it, so we had it made!
Succulent and moist, a fresh burst of lemony zing followed by a savory, grassy and almondy length. Oh my oh my!

St Jude – Made by Julie Cheyney in Bungay, Sulfolk
A lactic style cheese with a wrinkled, mould ripened rind & a smooth paste. Usually eaten between 2-5 weeks old. St. Jude develops from a young, fresh & creamy cheese to more complex flavour leaning towards a buttery, vegetal & grassy profile in the winter when the cows are out to pasture.
