About Low skim mozzarella

Low skim mozzarella is a versatile cheese originating from Italy, celebrated for its mild flavor and smooth texture. Made from partially skimmed cow's milk, it contains fewer calories and less fat compared to traditional whole milk mozzarella, making it a popular choice for health-conscious diets. It delivers a good source of protein and calcium, essential for muscle maintenance and bone health, while being relatively low in carbohydrates. Commonly featured in Italian cuisine, this cheese is a staple for dishes like pizza, pasta, and caprese salad. Though lower in fat, it is still moderately high in sodium, which might be a consideration for those watching their salt intake. Its lower calorie profile and adaptability to numerous recipes make it an excellent option for adding creamy richness without compromising overall nutritional goals.
