Mini mozzarella balls
Description
Mini mozzarella balls are small, smooth balls of white cheese with a delicate, milky flavor and a subtle tanginess, featuring a creamy, slightly elastic texture that melts pleasantly in the mouth. They are snow-white and shiny in appearance, often stored in a light brine, which emphasizes the freshness and juiciness of the product. Nutritionally, mini mozzarella provides valuable protein, calcium, phosphorus, and B vitamins, contributing to the maintenance of healthy bones and muscles as well as a feeling of fullness; however, attention should be paid to the content of saturated fats and salt for those on a restrictive diet. The balls are perfect for salads (e.g., caprese), snacks on toothpicks, casseroles, pizza, or marinating with oil and herbs, as well as a pasta addition. Store in the refrigerator in the original brine or in clean, salted water in an airtight container; once opened, consume within 3–5 days, avoiding freezing due to texture deterioration.
