Low-moisture mozzarella is a firm, stretched-curd cheese originating from Italy, celebrated for its mild, creamy flavor and excellent melting properties. Made primarily from cow's milk, it contains pasteurized milk, cultures, enzymes, and salt. With a lower water content than fresh mozzarella, it has a longer shelf life and is often used in dishes like pizza, lasagna, and casseroles, where its ability to melt and brown perfectly is prized. Nutritionally, low-moisture mozzarella is a good source of protein and calcium, supporting muscle health and bone strength. It is relatively lower in carbs, making it suitable for low-carb diets. However, it can be high in saturated fat and sodium, so moderation is key, particularly for individuals monitoring heart health or blood pressure. Its versatile taste and nutritional qualities make it a favorite in both traditional and modern cuisine worldwide.
