Bocconcini Cheese

About Bocconcini Cheese

Bocconcini is a type of Italian cheese traditionally made from cow's, goat's, or water buffalo's milk. This semi-soft cheese is brined, giving it a mild, fresh flavor with a hint of saltiness. Bocconcini are small, round balls of cheese that are soft and smooth in texture, making them perfect for salads or as a topping for pizza. The cheese is often used in Caprese salads, paired with fresh tomatoes and basil. Its creamy texture allows it to absorb flavors, making it a versatile ingredient in various dishes. Bocconcini is typically enjoyed fresh and should be stored in its brine to maintain its moisture and flavor.
