Italian Cheeses

Cheesemaker Rynn Caputo, founder of Caputo Brothers Creamery, demonstrates how to make fresh and aged stretched cheeses in your own kitchen. Stretched (or "pasta filata") cheeses all begin with a curd - heating, stretching, and augmenting it to produce different consistencies, textures, and flavors. If you've ever wanted to try your hand at homemade cheese, Rynn will get you on your way in no time.
