About Bufala mozzarella

Bufala Mozzarella, made from the milk of Italian water buffalo, is a staple of Italian cuisine, renowned for its creamy texture and rich flavor. Originating in the Campania region of Italy, this prized cheese is minimally processed, maintaining high levels of protein and essential nutrients like calcium and phosphorus. With fewer calories and fat compared to cow’s milk mozzarella, Bufala Mozzarella is considered a healthier alternative while still offering indulgent richness. It’s a good source of beneficial fats, though it is moderately high in sodium, so portion control is key. Enjoyed fresh, with its delicate texture and slightly tangy taste, it pairs beautifully with salads, pasta, or olive oil and tomatoes in classic Caprese dishes. For those seeking a natural, flavorful option packed with nutrients, Bufala Mozzarella stands out as a delicious and versatile choice in Mediterranean-style diets.
