About Mozorella cheese
Mozzarella cheese, a staple of Italian cuisine, is a soft, creamy cheese traditionally made from buffalo milk but often crafted with cow's milk today. Originating in Southern Italy, this cheese boasts a mild flavor and smooth texture, making it a key ingredient in dishes like pizza, Caprese salad, and lasagna. Rich in protein and calcium, mozzarella supports bone health and muscle maintenance. It is lower in fat and calories compared to many aged cheeses, offering a lighter option for cheese lovers. However, it is somewhat high in sodium, so moderation is advised, especially for those managing salt intake. Mozzarella also contains essential vitamins such as B2 and B12, contributing to energy production and immune function. This versatile cheese is widely enjoyed for its balance of flavor and nutrition.
