Mozzarella!!!

I made mozzarella!!! I honestly did not think it would turn out, so now that it did I am super excited. It tasted so good! I guess the next cheese to try is cheddar. Cheddar needs to be pressed and aged and all sorts of new stuff, so it might be awhile before I do it.
This is a picture of the pizza I made today. For the crust I used tortillas that turned out too hard, tomato paste for the sauce, and topped it with cherry tomatoes, basil leaves, and red peppers. Oh boy, was that good!

I got the idea for the whole basil leaves from a foccacia bread Misty bought at the farmer's market yesterday. I am thinking that when I get better at this bread and cheese making I might start selling at the farmer's market. Stef is building me a very large solar oven that I could bake several loaves in at the same time.
