About Mozzerlla
Mozzarella is a soft, mild cheese traditionally originating from Italy, made primarily from cow’s milk or buffalo milk. It is a key ingredient in Italian cuisine, starring in dishes like pizza, caprese salad, and lasagna. Mozzarella is rich in protein and calcium, supporting muscle growth and bone health. It also contains vitamin B12 and phosphorus, essential for energy production and cellular repair. This cheese is lower in fat and calories compared to many other cheeses, particularly when opting for part-skim varieties, making it a popular choice for lighter meals. However, full-fat mozzarella can contribute to higher saturated fat intake, so moderation is advised for those monitoring heart health. Its fresh, creamy texture and versatility make it a nutritious and widely appreciated addition to meals, fitting well into Mediterranean-style diets focused on whole foods and balanced flavors.
