Market Basket Provolini Antipasti
What it is
Provolini Antipasti from Market Basket offers small, fresh mozzarella balls marinated in a savory blend of herbs and oil. These bite-sized cheese orbs are a delightful addition to any gathering or a simple snack. They are typically made from cow's milk and have a mild, creamy flavor that absorbs the surrounding seasonings. The texture is soft and yielding, making them easy to enjoy straight from the container.

These marinated cheese balls are perfect for adding a touch of Italian-inspired flavor to your meals and appetizers. They are ready to serve and require no additional preparation.
- Add to salads
- Serve on charcuterie boards
- Skewer with cherry tomatoes
- Enjoy as a simple snack
To enjoy, simply open the container and drain any excess liquid if desired. The provolini can be served as they are, or you can spear them with toothpicks for easy handling. They pair wonderfully with cured meats, olives, and crusty bread on an antipasto platter. For a lighter option, toss them into a green salad with your favorite dressing, or skewer them with fresh cherry tomatoes and basil leaves for a colorful and flavorful bite. They also work well added to pasta salads.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike larger balls of fresh mozzarella, provolini are smaller and more concentrated in flavor due to the marinade. The herbs and oil infuse the cheese, giving it a distinct taste that is more complex than plain mozzarella. Their convenient size also makes them ideal for individual servings or easy distribution.
Who it is for
Anyone looking to add a flavorful and convenient cheese option to their meals or entertaining spreads will appreciate this product.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining provolini in their original marinade in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is best to consume them within a few days to maintain their freshness and optimal texture. Ensure the cheese remains submerged in the marinade for the best results.
