Grated mozzarella is a versatile cheese made from cow’s milk, known for its mild, milky flavor and excellent melting properties. Originally hailing from Italy, it is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine, famously used in pizza, pasta dishes, and casseroles. This pre-shredded cheese typically contains cheese cultures, enzymes, and a small amount of anti-clumping agents like potato starch or cellulose. Packed with protein and calcium, grated mozzarella can support bone health and muscle development. It is also relatively low in fat compared to other cheeses, making it a lighter option for adding creamy texture to meals. However, it is higher in sodium, so portion control is essential for those monitoring their salt intake. A convenient and flavorful ingredient, grated mozzarella is a go-to for adding rich, gooey goodness to your favorite dishes.
