About Motzerella cheese
Mozzarella cheese, a staple of Italian cuisine, is renowned for its mild flavor and stretchy texture. Traditionally made from buffalo milk, today it’s commonly crafted from cow's milk, offering versatility in both fresh and aged forms. Mozzarella is rich in protein and calcium, supporting muscle health and bone strength. It’s also a good source of vitamins such as B12 and riboflavin. While relatively low in fat compared to some cheeses, it can still be calorie-dense, so portion control is key. Mozzarella’s lower sodium content makes it a heart-friendlier option among cheeses. Widely used in dishes like pizza, caprese salad, and lasagna, its iconic meltability is perfect for hot recipes. Pairing great taste with nutritional benefits, mozzarella can be a wholesome addition to a balanced diet when consumed mindfully.
