About Mozzerella cheese
Mozzarella cheese is a soft, creamy cheese originally from Italy, globally recognized for its mild flavor and smooth texture. Traditionally made from water buffalo milk, it’s now commonly crafted from cow’s milk. A staple in Italian cuisine, mozzarella is famously used in dishes like pizza, Caprese salads, and pasta bakes. Nutritionally, mozzarella is a good source of protein and calcium, supporting muscle health and strong bones. It’s lower in fat and sodium compared to many other cheeses, making it a relatively healthier option for cheese lovers. However, like most cheeses, it can be calorically dense, so moderation is key. It often contains important probiotics when made in its fresher forms, which promote gut health. With its versatile nature and nutritional benefits, mozzarella is celebrated both for its taste and its contributions to a balanced diet.
