Readers offer places to find mozzarella

Fresh mozzarella in water is something that’s completely (and delightfully) different from the dry packaged stuff, and this week her fellow readers are helping Lynn Callahan find it.

Brandi Segura suggested Rocco’s NY Italian Deli, 1181 S. Buffalo Drive. Daniel Barnes recommended Praml International, 4525 W. Hacienda Ave. Robert Cirelli suggested Siena Deli, 2250 E. Tropicana Blvd. (and for the semolina Italian bread Callahan was seeking as well) and Roma Deli & Bakery, 5755 Spring Mountain Road. And Andrea Drasner suggested Trader Joe’s and Sam’s Club. …

For Heidi Janesin, who’s looking for New York-style bagel chips, Cheryl Hauntz e-mailed that they can be found at Sam’s Club at 7175 Spring Mountain Road, and Drasner recommended those at the Bagel Cafe, 301 N. Buffalo Drive, which are made from leftover bagels. …

For Bobby Prokuski, who’s looking for a local source for Supreme Tamales, Steve and Barbara Pattee and Marv Unell both suggested Chicago Hot Dogs, 1078 N. Rancho Drive. The Pattees, who live in Bullhead City, Ariz., say they arrive with a cooler and ice and stock up on the tamales, frozen Vienna beef hot dogs and Mary Ann poppy-seed buns. …

For Tracy Marin, who’s looking for ground celery seed, Mickey Gennuso e-mailed that the “elusive, but great” product can be found at Sunflower Farmer’s Market, which is at 3365 E. Tropicana Ave. and 4020 S. Rainbow Blvd. And Libby Hoover e-mailed that she’s ordered it from The Great American Spice Company at www.americanspice.com, or call (877) 677-4239. …

For Robert Spriestersbach, who’s looking for reader suggestions for good fried frog legs or chicken livers, Dean B. Pomerantz e-mailed to say the best he’s ever had were at Buffet at Asia. …
