Default Fior di latte -- redux

We ate in a restaurant this evening that had three different Pizza Margherita.

The basic model, then a Margherita with fior di latte for about $1 more, or a Margherita with small cherry tomato sized mozzarella di bufala for about $3 more.

We shot for the middle, don't ask me why, for a Pizza Margherita as an appetizer, and it was outstanding. You could taste the quality of the cheese. More body adn flavor than basic mozzarella, and though not as tangy as the di bufala, it was perfect on a pizza.

Mozzarella di bufala in a Caprese salad, and fior di latte on your pizza seems to work.
