Hi all,

So, having found a recipe on Chow for homemade mozzarella cheese, my interest is picqued. However, I haven't the first clue where to find the required rennet. The recipe calls for vegetable rennet  - does anyone have any ideas about where to find vegetable rennet (in liquid or tablet form) in TO?

Also, it also calls for citric acid (not lemon juice, which would have been my first guess), and I'm similarly puzzled by that one, so any tips on finding citric acid would be most welcome as well

Thanks!</content>

The citric acid may be called citric crystal, or sour salt</content>

      <content>Two ways to get rennet.
1. Take one cow, and etc.
2. Call up someone like M.C. Dairy ( in Etobicoke)  or Western Dairy and ask them about getting some rennet. 
I understand from someone whos ebusiness it is to know- kosher supervision- that almost all rennet except in third world countries is vegetable rennet. 

When you are at either, get some of their  Maslanka, it is  essentially buttermilk yoghurt. only 3 or 3.25 and you will give up sour cream ( and its huge fat content) because Maslanka tastes better.</content>
