What is buffalo moz?

Buffalo mozzarella, also known as mozzarella di bufala, is a type of cheese made from the milk of water buffalo. It is traditionally produced in Italy, specifically in the regions of Campania, Lazio, and Puglia.

Buffalo mozzarella has a soft, creamy texture and a mild, slightly tangy flavor. It is typically used in salads, pizza, and as a topping for toast and bruschetta.

Compared to cow's milk mozzarella, buffalo mozzarella has higher fat and protein content, which contributes to its richer flavor and creamier texture. It is also said to be more digestible for those with lactose intolerance.

Due to its unique taste and texture, buffalo mozzarella is considered a gourmet cheese and is generally more expensive than cow's milk mozzarella.
