Kunsei means smoked. This is seasoned with shoyu, and other condiments.
It tastes like a semi-hard cheese more than anything. You can't really taste the shoyu.
It probably would go better with some wine.
I'm glad we got to try this and would buy this again.
It's Friday here, I hope you have a nice weekend!
UPDATE: we ate the other half with some wine...it was good!
How strange!!

How interesting! I took a closer look at the photo and the color is just like the smoked buffalo milk mozz that I used to find at the supermarket. Glad you tried it.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if this texture is the same as paneer, Rowena?!

Not sure, but the smoked mozz was a wee bit firmer than the fresh type. I've been trying to find it again but no luck, and the photo that I took ages ago was either deleted accidently or lost in a black hole of files somewhere. We really liked it since it brought a whole new taste experience to caprese salad and sliced in sandwiches.
ReplyDeleteI am gonna be on the look out for smoked mozz over here, Rowena :) sounds ono!
ReplyDeleteTake care!
