Mozzarella

Italians do it best: This orecchiette recipe with mozzarella is proof.

Attention all you dieters: If you lose the bun, I've found you a delicious Memorial Day meal!

If you don't believe me, ask all the little neighborhood stands (not to mention a few hulking multinational corporations) that have steadily traded on the classic for years. They'll tell you not to go sticking pesto on a perfectly good hamburger.

This tartlet using peak tomatoes looks like it takes all day to make, but it is actually a quickie.

In this new chicken Parmesan recipe, layers of Parmesan and mozzarella cheese do wonders together. Plus, you multitask by roasting tomatoes on the same pan, and those will become your garnish when the dish is ready in around 10 minutes.
