Origin
Mozzarella cheese originated in Italy, specifically in the region of Campania. It was traditionally made from the milk of water buffaloes, but today, it is more commonly made from cow's milk. The cheese is named after the town of Mozzarella in the Campania region. Shredded mozzarella is a variation of mozzarella cheese that has been processed and shredded into small, thin pieces. It is widely used as a topping for pizzas, pasta dishes, and other Italian-inspired recipes.
