Discover the authentic art of Apulian cheesemaking with a live mozzarella and burrata stretching show inside one of Bari’s most historic dairies. The experience takes place in a family‑run creamery that has been producing artisanal dairy products since the late 1800s, using only fresh local milk and traditional hand‑crafting methods passed down through generations.
As you step inside the dairy, you’ll immediately feel the warmth of a true Apulian family business. You’ll be welcomed by expert cheesemakers who will guide you through the fascinating world of fresh cheese production. They will demonstrate each step of the process — from curd formation to the iconic filatura — showing how the dough is cut, stretched, shaped, and transformed into the smooth mozzarella and the rich, creamy burrata that Puglia is famous for.
The show is fully observational, allowing you to watch the entire process up close. You’ll learn about the history of these cheeses, the importance of milk quality, and the techniques that make Apulian dairy products so unique. The cheesemakers will share curiosities, traditions, and small secrets that reveal just how much skill and precision are required to create these specialities by hand.
After the demonstration, you’ll enjoy a delicious tasting of freshly made mozzarella and burrata — soft, delicate, and incredibly flavourful. Tasting them warm, just moments after production, is a rare opportunity that highlights the genuine taste of Apulian dairy tradition. Everything is made daily with fresh milk from the Murgia area, without preservatives or additives, ensuring an authentic and natural flavour.
This experience is perfect for food lovers, families, and anyone curious about local craftsmanship. It offers a meaningful glimpse into one of Puglia’s most beloved culinary traditions and celebrates the passion, dedication, and heritage behind every bite of mozzarella and burrata.
