You can fry mozzarella using a double breading technique with flour, egg and some breadcrumbs and then you freeze the cheese for 30 minutes to an hour before frying the mozzarella in hot oil around 350 F for 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown.

This process of frying mozzarella creates a crispy outer layer and also keeps the mozzarella cheese gooey and melted inside and prevents the mozzarella cheese from leaking out into the oil.

Mozzarella cheese is eaten with a variety of different foods and dishes including pizza, pasta, chicken dishes, toast, salads, grilled vegetables olives, stuffed breads, pesto, sandwiches, chicken sandwiches or anything else that you want to place Mozzarella on or in.

Mozzarella cheese also goes great with tomatoes and basil in a Caprese salad or even in pizzas, pasta bakes and chicken Parmesan.

You can also pair mozzarella cheese with olive oil and some herbs to make mozzarella into a simple appetizer.

Or you can even serve mozzarella cheese with some grilled vegetables or cured meats or even sweet fruits like melon.

Melted Mozzarella also goes great on sandwiches in stuffed breads or even fried into fried mozzarella sticks.

To use mozzarella cheese in Caprese salad you can combine some sliced fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and basil and then drizzle some olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Or top some toasted bread slices with some fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and basil, season it with some olive oil, salt and pepper for Bruschetta.

Or marinate some fresh mozzarella balls in some olive oil with garlic, herbs and chili flakes and then serve on their own or add it to salads and pizzas.

Or even pair the mozzarella with some fresh produce such as nectarines, peaches, cucumbers, cantaloupe or radishes.
