I had a couple issues at first. One, this is supposed to be kept refrigerated. It showed up on time but it was in the nineties outside when it shipped and it was not packaged in any way to keep it cool. I could not expect it to be in a cooler but a little extra bubble wrap might have been nice. Next was the bar code label it was slapped right over the bottle label with the important instructions like, keep refrigerated. So it took me a while to get around to scraping off the bar and noticing it needed to in my fridge. Other instructions that were covered with the bar label was the one saying that this Rennet is double strength so to use half of what your recipes call for. Do not believe that. My first try at cheese making failed. So next time I used what the recipe said, did not cut by half and it worked fine.

I found this rennet to be very affective in the way I learned how to use it. Following is some basic instruction for making mozzarella cheese.

Prepare 1 and a half tea spoon citric acid mixed in a quarter cup of cool water, mix it with milk while heating (as described bellow).

Take One Gallon whole milk (not ultra pasteurized) in a pot and heat it up to 90 °F, turn off the heat source and mix in 12 drops of this liquid vegetable rennet.

Cover the pot and let it stay for an hour, then cut the curdle in to squares and heat the mixture (curdle and whey) to 110 °F in order to separate liquid from solids then shift the curdle to a colander, leave till water is drained out.

Heat the whey (not the curdle) to 185 °F degrees then transfer the curdle back into the whey and let it set in for 5-8 minutes then stretch till smooth and shiny.

At this point you can make small balls or any shapes you may like (wear food grade gloves to avoid burning your hands). Enjoy.

Bought it to make mozzarella- each batch only uses a tiny amount and it works great! I highly recommend it, I have only had one batch not work- but it was the brand of mIlk( it also wouldn't turn to yoghurt)

I made my first mozzarella cheese with this, it worked absolutely great and everything went smoothly. It was very fast to make too, which surprised me.

The last cheese I made used rennet in tablet form. It took longer to get the tablet to dissolve. It has been recommended that liquid vegetable rennet is easier to use. I have no doubt that it will combine with the other ingredients faster than the tablets.

As directed, I use half the amount called for in the ricotta or mozzarella recipe and it works reliably well.

Used it to make mozzarella cheese a few times now. I read other reviews and people said they needed to double to dose for their cheese. I did this the first time and it set remarkable fast so I lowered the dose to 1.5x's the amount it says to use and it still set up just fine. I will be buying more of this when I run out. Fresh mozzarella is a must, and you can use the left over parts to make ricotta for an amazing stuffed chicken Parmesan.
