Mozzarella and the Pescatarian Diet
Mozzarella is a traditional Italian cheese that originated from the Campania region. It is traditionally made from Italian buffalo's milk using a process called pasta filata, which involves spinning and cutting the curd. Today, it's also commonly made from cow's milk. Mozzarella is prized for its smooth, milky texture and subtle flavor, making it a versatile ingredient in many dishes, particularly in Italian cuisine. It is best known for its melting quality, making it an essential ingredient in pizzas, lasagnas, and caprese salads.
