About Mozarella buffala
Mozzarella di Bufala is a creamy, soft cheese made from the milk of water buffalo, originating in southern Italy, particularly in regions like Campania. Renowned for its delicate texture and rich flavor, this cheese is a staple in Italian cuisine, often featured in dishes like Caprese salads and atop Neapolitan-style pizzas. Nutritionally, Mozzarella di Bufala is a source of high-quality protein, calcium, and phosphorus, which are beneficial for bone health and muscle function. It is lower in fat compared to many other cheeses, but it still contains saturated fat, so portion moderation is advised. With minimal carbs and no added sugars, it’s suitable for low-carb diets. The freshness and artisanal preparation methods make it a wholesome choice, though its high sodium content is worth noting for those monitoring salt intake. Enjoy it as part of a balanced, Mediterranean-inspired meal for optimal health benefits.
