What it is
Mozzarella cheese powder is a dried, powdered form of mozzarella cheese. It is made by removing moisture from mozzarella cheese, often through spray-drying or freeze-drying processes. This results in a shelf-stable ingredient that retains much of the flavor and texture of the original cheese.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add mozzarella cheese powder to provide a cheesy flavor and aroma to foods without adding moisture. It is commonly used in dry mixes for sauces, soups, snack foods like crackers and chips, and as a topping for baked goods. It is also found in convenience foods such as instant noodles and pizza mixes.
Health notes
Mozzarella cheese powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of protein and calcium, similar to regular cheese. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated cheese and dairy products, but specific evaluations for mozzarella cheese powder's health effects at typical consumption levels are not widely detailed. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.
Allergen info
Mozzarella cheese powder is derived from milk, which is one of the FDA's major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
