What it is
Mozzarella and provolone are semi-firm cheeses made from cow's milk. Mozzarella is typically made using the "pasta filata" method, where the curd is heated and stretched. Provolone is also a stretched-curd cheese, often aged longer than mozzarella, giving it a sharper flavor.
Why it's used
These cheeses are added for their flavor, texture, and meltability. They are commonly found in pizzas, pasta dishes, sandwiches, and appetizers. Their mild to sharp flavors and ability to brown make them versatile ingredients.
Health notes
Mozzarella and provolone are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as food ingredients. They are a source of protein, calcium, and other nutrients. Excessive consumption of cheese, due to its saturated fat and sodium content, may be a concern for some individuals. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated cheese and dairy products.
Allergen info
Cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
