Low-moisture Mozzarella can be kept refrigerated for up to a month, though some shredded low-moisture Mozzarella is sold with a shelf life of up to six months. Mozzarella of several kinds is also used for most types of pizza and several pasta dishes, or served with sliced tomatoes and basil in Caprese salad.
