fresh mozzarella?
Anyone know of a place that makes fresh mozzarella daily? I recently moved to SF from NYC and this is the only food item that I miss and have not been able to find. Thanks for your help!

Food serendipity must be at work today. As I was reading this post, my Mother Earth News blast came in. The topic?

Belfiore in Berkeley makes fresh mozzarella. If you can find a vendor with a high turnover rate, it may suffice.

I do not know of one place that makes it daily, this should be on the "SF Food Mystery" thread you would think it was possible, but no.
I really love the mozzarella from Rainbow Grocery in fact their cheese department is excellent. They have two mozzarella cheeses that are very fresh packaged in a container, one large ball and it is the freshest I have tasted in SF. I had asked them once where it comes from- one is from the East Coast and the other is from San Jose, don't remember which of the two I liked best.

Can't help you with the freshly made stuff. If you're adventurous enough to make your own, though (which isn't hard), I was able to find fresh mozzarella curd at an Andronico's in Berkeley.
My advice is to call the Cheese Board in Berkeley and ask them if they know of a supplier in the city. 510-549-3183

I agree with Mudster - fresh is *really* easy to make... almost disgustingly so. I haven't bought it in years.

I learned from Rikki Carroll's site:
