What it is

Whole milk mozzarella is a semi-soft, white cheese made from cow's milk. It is produced by heating and stretching the curd, a process called 'pasta filata'. This gives it its characteristic stringy texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use whole milk mozzarella for its mild, milky flavor and excellent melting properties. It is a popular choice for pizzas, calzones, and other baked dishes where a gooey, stretchy cheese is desired.

Health notes

Whole milk mozzarella is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for consumption. It is a source of protein and calcium. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated cheese and dairy products. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Whole milk mozzarella is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
