I'm smoking a bunch of cheese now and I'm not sure what I should do with the smoked mozzarella ball I have. Should I vacu seal it like the rest of the cheese and age it for at least two weeks? Any info would be appreciated.

 
Mozzarella is one of the rare cheeses that you don't have to age.That's why a lot of people throw in string cheese when they smoke other cheese - it helps them make it through the aging process with their other cheese. Have at it man & enjoy

Smoking B, your saying eat it and don't vacu seal it? I just sealed it. I tasted it and it was pretty harsh after 3 hours.
 
I didn't know how long you had it in for but I usually don't age any of my mozz unless I smoke a lot of it. Depending on what wood you used though it might need a short rest... It's all a subjective thing though as far as how much smoke anyone likes their cheese to have - if it seems harsh to you by all means let it rest a while but it probably won't need as much time as your other cheese.
 
Ok thanks. I'll let it rest a week or so in the vacu seal and try it out. Appreciate your help.
