Bocconcini - Bite Size" nuggets of fresh MOZZARELLA weighing approximately 1-1/2 ounces. Ovoline - "Egg Size" pieces of fresh MOZZARELLA weighing approximately 4 ounces. Mozzarella has a mild, milky taste and is a great cooking cheese due to its good binding properties, moist texture, and ability to melt. Our Fresh Mozzarella is handmade in smaller batches, from whole milk and has a softer, buttery texture and a delicate flavor. It's delicious served raw with ripe, farm-fresh tomatoes or as part of an antipasto platter. It is a "stretched-cured" cheese meaning that during the manufacturing process the curd is pulled, kneaded and shaped while it is still pliable. Therefore, it absorbs the flavors and juices of the ingredients surrounding it and is perfectly designed for cooking. Mozzarella is also low in fat; therefore, it is ideal to use even when dieting.
