About Morzarella

Mozzarella is a soft, mild cheese originating from Italy, traditionally made from water buffalo milk but often produced using cow's milk today. Known for its smooth texture and stretchiness, mozzarella is a staple ingredient in Italian cuisine, commonly used in dishes like pizza, lasagna, caprese salads, and pasta. It is rich in protein, calcium, and phosphorus, which support bone and muscle health. Mozzarella is lower in fat compared to many other cheeses, making it a healthier option in moderation. However, it can be high in sodium and saturated fats, so excessive consumption should be avoided. Fresh varieties, such as mozzarella di bufala, naturally contain fewer additives compared to pre-shredded or processed versions. Its versatility and generally mild nutritional profile make it a popular choice worldwide for enhancing flavor and texture in countless dishes.
