| Description | Mozzarella strips, made with raw buffalo milk obtained from buffalo raised in a semi-wild state in Maremma, and cow's milk cream |
|---|---|
| Appearance | The cream is rightly liquid with mozzarella's stripe of irregular sizes |
| Taste | In the mouth you can feel the sweetness and softness of the cream that match perfectly with the irregularity of the strips which remember notes of buffalo milk |
| Maturing | Not expected |
| Curiosity | The buffaloes from which the milk is obtained for the production of Mozzarella and Burrata are raised in the semi-wild breeding on the owned farm on the Maremma hills. The farm is a virtuous example of circular economy, short supply chain and sustainability: the biogas plant transforms cereals, livestock and dairy processing wastes into energy; the cultivation of cereals is aimed at feeding the buffaloes; all the milk produced by the stable is processed; animal welfare is placed at the centre, together with that of the staff and of the environment |
| Our selection | Thanks to Guido Pallini from La Maremmana, we were able to develop a buffalo milk stracciatella together: the result is a stracciatella full of personality, beautiful to look at and with a sweet, balanced flavour |
| Suggestions | It can be used on focaccia, bruschetta, toast and pizza as an alternative to mozzarella, also excellent to season pasta dishes |

The producer
La Maremmana - Principina Terra (GR) - Tuscany
Why we chose them
La Maremmana' is the name of the buffalo-milk mozzarella produced by the Inno al Sole Dairy, run by the young Guido Pallini. After gaining some
experience abroad in the world of finance, he decided to return to Tuscany to take over the family business founded by his father.
The Maremmana is a native cattle breed of southern Tuscany and northern Lazio, rustic and very hardy, with large lyre-shaped horns and a coat
with greyish hues. The farm was originally established to rear this beef cattle breed, but during the crisis of the 1980s, it became necessary to
diversify the business. Marcello Pallini, Guido's father, fell in love with buffaloes during a trip to Salerno - robust and intelligent animals - and decided
to reintroduce them to the Maremma. The Inno al Sole Dairy is situated in Principina Terra, a hamlet of Grosseto, and has been converted from a
19th-century farmhouse, 500 metres from the barn. It is flanked by the farm shop, separated from the production area only by a glass partition to
allow customers to watch the production process. Today, the barn is home to around 400 buffaloes, 250 of which are lactating, reared in free-range
conditions and fed on home-grown cereals and fodder. Guido has succeeded in breathing new life into a business that has been in the farming trade
for 200 years, back when transhumance was still practised in the Maremma.
