- Melting over baked dishes
Simply open the bag and sprinkle the mozzarella shreds directly onto your food. It melts beautifully when heated, creating a gooey and delicious topping.

How it differs from similar foods
Compared to block mozzarella, pre-shredded cheese offers convenience. It melts slightly differently due to the anti-caking agents often added to prevent clumping. This can affect the stretchiness and texture of the melted cheese.
