About Mozzarella bufala

Mozzarella di Bufala is a fresh Italian cheese made from the milk of water buffalo, primarily in the Campania region of Italy. Prized for its soft, creamy texture and mildly tangy flavor, it’s a staple in Italian cuisine, featured in dishes like Caprese salad, pizzas, and pastas. Rich in protein, calcium, and essential fats, it supports bone health and muscle repair, making it a nutritious choice in moderation. Compared to cow’s milk mozzarella, it typically contains higher levels of calcium and protein. However, it is also higher in fat, including saturated fat, so portion control is recommended for those monitoring calorie or fat intake. Naturally low in carbohydrates and free from artificial additives, Mozzarella di Bufala is a flavorful and wholesome ingredient when incorporated thoughtfully into a balanced diet. Always enjoy it fresh for the best taste and nutritional benefits.
