Low-moisture mozzarrella (pizza cheese) is prepared using a standard starter culture plus an additional culture selected from Pediococcus cerevisiae, Lactobacillus plantarum, Streptococcus faecalis, Streptococcus durans, and Lactobacillus casei, or mixtures thereof. Although the cheese is made by the usual processing steps, the cheese product has a reduced lactose sugar (and/or its monosaccharide derivatives) content due to the added culture, which metabolizes residual lactose during a cold temperature holding at the end of the process. The resulting cheese has improved properties for the manufacture of pizza, being substantially nonburning and having improving melt, flavor, and color characteristics.
