Low-Moisture Mozzarella

Low-Moisture Mozzarella is a fresh Italian-style cheese commonly used in salads, on pizzas and in many Mediterranean dishes; varieties range from soft bocconcini and fresh mozzarella to low‑moisture types used for melting. It is a notable source of high-quality protein, providing about 23.7g of protein per 100g, and is also valued for its calcium content. Nutritionally, Low-Moisture Mozzarella supplies well‑balanced essential amino acids, but compared with many plant foods it contains more saturated fat and sodium, so choosing part‑skim or lower‑salt versions can help when watching heart health or salt intake.
