What It Is
Breaded mozzarella bites from Piceno are small frozen cheese portions with a crisp coating and a soft mozzarella centre. Each piece weighs 15-18 g, making the product easy to portion for aperitifs, finger food and plated starters.
Supplier and Format
The commercial reference is supplied under the POL reference. It is packed in 1 kg bags, a practical format for professional kitchens that need a ready-to-cook cheese appetiser without opening a large production batch.
Organoleptic Profile
The breading gives a golden, crunchy surface when cooked, while the mozzarella inside becomes soft and melting. The result is a mild dairy flavour with a clear contrast between crisp exterior and creamy centre.
Professional Uses and Quantities
Fry or bake the bites according to the product instructions and portion them for aperitif plates, buffet service, mixed starters or finger food. Use the 15-18 g piece size to keep portions consistent and plan the 1 kg bag around the expected number of covers.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Do not overcrowd the fryer or baking tray, because the coating needs space to become crisp. Avoid holding cooked bites for too long, and do not refreeze the product after thawing.
Storage and Handling
Keep frozen and protect the cold chain. Thaw only according to the label instructions, use clean utensils and return unused product promptly to frozen storage when permitted by the packaging instructions.
