Lone Star Cheese | Mozzarella Company | Paula Lambert
January 3rd, 2008 by craigmc
Ever since she attended college in Perugia, Italy Paula Lambert has been in
love with good cheese, good bread and good wine. Later, when she was living
in Dallas, Texas she realized she couldn’t find the kinds of cheeses she enjoyed
in Italy. What’s a woman to do? She started making her own and formed the
Mozzarella Company in the early eighties. Influenced by southwest chefs like
Stephan Pyles, Dean Fearing and Robert Del Grande, Ms. Lambert started
adding herbs and chiles to her fresh cheeses. And never looked back. Her
cheese is now available from the Cowgirl Creamery in California to Murray’s
Cheese Shop in New York City. That’s a long way from Perugia.
Paula’s story was shot in her shop in Dallas.
