Fresh Mozzarella

Fresh Mozzarella

Everyday

Fresh Mozzarella is a soft Italian cheese traditionally made from buffalo milk (mozzarella di bufala) or cow's milk (fior di latte), characterized by its high moisture content and delicate milky flavor. Unlike aged, low-moisture mozzarella varieties, this fresh cheese has a tender, slightly elastic texture and is typically stored in brine to maintain freshness. It provides a good source of protein and calcium with lower sodium content than hard cheeses, commonly featured in Caprese salads and antipasto platters where its mild flavor complements fresh tomatoes and basil.
