About Queso mozzarella
Mozzarella cheese, originating from Italy, is a versatile dairy product integral to many cuisines, including Italian and Mediterranean dishes. Traditionally made from water buffalo milk, modern varieties often use cow’s milk, offering a mildly tangy, creamy flavor and soft, stretchy texture. Nutritionally, mozzarella is rich in protein, calcium, and phosphorus, supporting muscle growth and bone health. It is comparatively low in fat and sodium compared to other cheeses, making it a lighter choice for those monitoring their intake. However, it does contain saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation, particularly for heart health. Mozzarella is lactose-friendly due to its fermentation process, though individuals with severe dairy sensitivities should exercise caution. Its adaptability in dishes ranging from salads to pizzas highlights its global culinary appeal, offering both indulgent and nutritious options when enjoyed in balanced portions.
