Cheese Bits
| The Mozzamini Pearls Calabrian Chili by Cheese Bits is a low-moisture *scamorza* cheese, crafted in California using local milk for quality and terroir impact. Its artisanal process involves acidification, hand-stretching, and incorporation of moderate-heat Calabrian chili, whose lipophilic capsaicin interacts with the cheese fat for a delayed, creamy heat. The pearls offer a firm, elastic texture ideal for snacking, cooking, and pairing with sweet or spicy foods. Nutritionally dense and preserved naturally, they align with modern snack trends. Packaging and sustainable practices emphasize freshness and environmental care. This product bridges Italian tradition with contemporary convenience and flavor innovation. | |
