'''Mozzarella sticks''' (also referred to as '''fried mozzarella''',<ref name="delish7"/><ref name="lidiasitaly-22"/> '''mozzarella milanese'''<ref name="italianfood-109"/><ref name="foodofitaly-289"/> or '''mozzarella fritta'''<ref name="bibasitaly1"/><ref name="regionalitalian-149"/>) are an appetizer or snack often paired with [[marinara]] [[dipping sauce]]. They're frequently mistaken as traditional Italian in origin, when they're actually a part of [[Italian-American cuisine]] and possibly derived from an old French recipe from the 14th century. Mozzarella sticks grew in popularity in America in the 1970s following the spread of deep fryers and the popularity of pizza. They are a [[finger food]] that can be found on the menus of sports bars, dive bars, casual restaurants, pizza restaurants and bowling alleys.

The exact origins are unknown,<ref name="thrillist2"/> but most sources point to a recipe for "pipefarce" published in the 1393 [[France in the Middle Ages|medieval French]] guidebook ''[[Le Ménagier de Paris]]'' as the earliest known recording of a dish resembling modern mozzarella sticks.<ref name="vl1"/><ref name="mashed1"/><ref name="thrillist1"/> The guidebook was written from the perspective of a fictional elderly man giving advice to his younger wife on proper marriage behavior.

Mozzarella sticks, along with other [[Italian-American cuisine]] dishes such as [[pizza]], [[spaghetti with meatballs]] and [[chicken parmesan]], began to appear in America during the [[Italian diaspora]] in the early 1900s.<ref name="thrillist2"/> Guarino's, the oldest Italian restaurant in [[Little Italy, Cleveland]] (though, not the oldest Italian restaurant in the US), began serving fried mozzarella when it opened in 1918.<ref name="conquered-104"/> The advent of new frying technology in the 1960s made fried foods inexpensive and easy for vendors to sell, allowing dive bars and bowling alleys to start offering onion rings, french fries, buffalo wings and mozzarella sticks. Widespread popularity of mozzarella sticks in America didn't begin until the late 1970s, following the rise of pizza's popularity in the 1960s.<ref name="thrillist2"/> They elevated in popularity again with the rapid expansion of American [[casual dining]] restaurants such as [[Applebee's]], [[Chili's]] and [[T.G.I Friday's]] in the 1980s and 1990s. Mozzarella sticks were one of the first appetizer items on Applebee's menu when it opened.<ref name="thrillist2"/> By the 2000s and 2010s, some American [[Fast food restaurant|fast-food restaurant chains]] including [[Burger King]]<ref name="foodandwine1"/> and [[Sonic Drive-In]] added mozzarella sticks to their menu. In 2016, [[McDonald's]] was subject to heavy criticism and eventually a class-action lawsuit for the mozzarella sticks they served, with customers alleging that the chain was serving hollow cheeseless sticks and that the cheese they used was not 100% mozzarella.<ref name="bustle2"/><ref name="delish1"/><ref name="cnnmoney1"/><ref name="eater1"/><ref name="slate1"/> In 2020, T.G.I Friday's faced a class-action lawsuit for allegedly serving mozzarella sticks made with cheddar and defrauding its customers.<ref name="mashed2"/>
"'''On My Shield'''" is the first single released by American [[metalcore]] band [[Converge (band)|Converge]]. It was first made available during the band's European tour in July 2010. The single was self-released by the band, through it was distributed by Converge's labels, [[Epitaph Records]] and [[Deathwish Inc.]]. The song was recorded and produced between their 2010 US and European tours in support of ''[[Axe to Fall]]''.


Food reporter Emily Heil noted that [[Pizza Hut]]'s mozzarella stick crust pizza of 2020 was part of a trend of what she referred to as a recent "parade of food mash-ups" in America, alongside ramen hamburger buns, [[sushi burrito|sushi burritos]] and the [[Cronut]].<ref name="wapo1"/> Other American eateries used mozzarella sticks in unconventional ways around this time, including [[Denny's]], which offered a [[grilled cheese sandwich]] that used mozzarella sticks,<ref name="npr1"/> and [[Walt Disney World]], which offered a cheeseburger topped with mozzarella sticks.<ref name="delish2"/>
The single was released on a limited edition [[Gramophone record|7" vinyl]] in three different colors, with each variety limited to 1,000 copies. One version was sold during Converge's 2010 European tours, one was sold through the band's Epitaph webstore and the final version was distributed to various vinyl retailers. The [[B-side]] displays a [[Unusual types of gramophone records#Etched discs|laser etching]] of the band's shield logo, and does not feature any music. Bannon comments on the meaning behind the logo:


== Preparation and serving ==
<blockquote>"The symbol was part of an 18th century medical device used to find imperfections in one's sight. We use the symbol as a visual metaphor for searching for clarity and perspective in one's life."</blockquote>
Mozzarella sticks are made from slices or sticks from a larger block of cheese, or sticks of [[string cheese]]. These pieces are either dipped in [[Batter (cooking)|batter]] or rolled in [[Breading|breadcrumbs]] before dipping in oil for [[Deep frying|frying]]. To prevent the cheese from melting and leaching out into the oil while cooking, the battered sticks are often frozen before frying.<ref name="bonappetit1"/> Pre-prepared mozzarella sticks are also sold in frozen food sections of most grocery stores that can be either fried in oil or baked in an oven.


Mozzarella is the most popular cheese for frying because it's one of a few "melt-restricted" cheeses.<ref name="breadedfriedfoods-93"/> These are cheeses that can soften when heated, but won't lose their identity or separate because of their lower fat content and a larger network of the protein [[casein]].<ref name="dairyingredients"/><ref name="oxfordcheese1"/> Alternative melt-restricted cheeses that could be used to make this dish include [[cheddar cheese]],<ref name="breadedfriedfoods-93"/> [[Bel Paese (cheese)|Bel Paese]]<ref name="italianfood-109"/><ref name="foodofitaly-289"/> or [[cheese curds]].<ref name="miamint1"/> The UK supermarket [[Morrisons]] offers [[vegan]] mozzarella sticks that substitute cheese with a mixture of [[coconut oil]] and [[potato starch]].<ref name="veganfood1"/>
The song "On My Shield" made it's radio debut on [[BBC Radio 1]] program in July 2010.


They're served with [[dipping sauces]], most commonly with tomato-based [[marinara]] sauce. Casual family restaurants often order a variety of dipping options, including [[ranch dressing]] and [[honey mustard]]. Mozzarella sticks with [[raspberry]] sauce are part of the [[regional cuisine]] of [[New York (state)|New York]]'s [[Capital District, New York|Capital District]].<ref name="alloveralbany1"/>

'''music'''<br>
Converge took their music in a more [[progressive rock|progressive]] direction with ''Axe to Fall''. Ballou noted that drummer Ben Koller had been listening to more progressive rock over the last few years, and that he tried to complement this sound on the guitar. He went on to say that he was getting the "more straightforward, raw punk aggression out in a yet-to be named hardcore side project that I started. So that leaves me free to get weird and progressive with Converge."<ref name="stereogum"/> Ballou considers the band's previous three albums (''Jane Doe'', ''You Fail Me'' and ''No Heroes'') to be a [[trilogy]] in regards to their sound, and hoped to push their musical boundaries on ''Axe to Fall''.<ref name="farris">{{cite web| last = Ferris| first = D.X.| title = Axe to Grind – Hardcore heroes Converge unleash metallic new album| publisher = ''[[Cleveland Scene]]''| date = October 14, 2009| url = http://www.clevescene.com/cleveland/axe-to-grind/Content?oid=1678531| accessdate = October 14, 2009}}</ref> The tracks on the album have been noted to range from "drone-and-pummel" to atmospheric.

*"When people say we don't sound like a hardcore band, that musically we've grown beyond it, I think that maybe that's what a hardcore band should be doing.

Mozzarella sticks (also referred to as fried mozzarella,[4][5] mozzarella milanese[1][2] or mozzarella fritta[6][7]) are an appetizer or snack often paired with marinara dipping sauce. They're frequently mistaken as traditional Italian in origin, when they're actually a part of Italian-American cuisine and possibly derived from an old French recipe from the 14th century. Mozzarella sticks grew in popularity in America in the 1970s following the spread of deep fryers and the popularity of pizza. They are a finger food that can be found on the menus of sports bars, dive bars, casual restaurants, pizza restaurants and bowling alleys.

History

[edit]

The exact origins are unknown,[8] but most sources point to a recipe for "pipefarce" published in the 1393 medieval French guidebook Le Ménagier de Paris as the earliest known recording of a dish resembling modern mozzarella sticks.[9][10][11] The guidebook was written from the perspective of a fictional elderly man giving advice to his younger wife on proper marriage behavior. Unlike modern recipes, this recipe uses wine in the batter[12] and muenster cheese instead of mozzarella.[9][10]

While they're often associated with the country of Italy, they are not a part of Italian cuisine.[8][9][10][13] According to Dr. John Gennari, University of Vermont professor of cultural studies, the confusion likely stems from the fact that buffalo mozzarella is an Italian creation and the word "mozzarella" itself has an Italian connotation.[8] Classic Italian cuisine does, however, include a similar dish called mozzarella in carrozza ("buffalo cheese in a carriage"[2]) in which slices of cheese are placed between thin slices of bread, battered and fried.[2][14] The Italian island of Sicily also has a dish called arancini, which is a ball of rice that's breaded and deep-fried, and may contain mozzarella in the center among other possible fillings.[13]

Mozzarella sticks, along with other Italian-American cuisine dishes such as pizza, spaghetti with meatballs and chicken parmesan, began to appear in America during the Italian diaspora in the early 1900s.[8] Guarino's, the oldest Italian restaurant in Little Italy, Cleveland (though, not the oldest Italian restaurant in the US), began serving fried mozzarella when it opened in 1918.[15] The advent of new frying technology in the 1960s made fried foods inexpensive and easy for vendors to sell, allowing dive bars and bowling alleys to start offering onion rings, french fries, buffalo wings and mozzarella sticks. Widespread popularity of mozzarella sticks in America didn't begin until the late 1970s, following the rise of pizza's popularity in the 1960s.[8] They elevated in popularity again with the rapid expansion of American casual dining restaurants such as Applebee's, Chili's and T.G.I Friday's in the 1980s and 1990s. Mozzarella sticks were one of the first appetizer items on Applebee's menu when it opened.[8] By the 2000s and 2010s, some American fast-food restaurant chains including Burger King[16] and Sonic Drive-In added mozzarella sticks to their menu. In 2016, McDonald's was subject to heavy criticism and eventually a class-action lawsuit for the mozzarella sticks they served, with customers alleging that the chain was serving hollow cheeseless sticks and that the cheese they used was not 100% mozzarella.[17][18][19][20][21] In 2020, T.G.I Friday's faced a class-action lawsuit for allegedly serving mozzarella sticks made with cheddar and defrauding its customers.[22]

Food reporter Emily Heil noted that Pizza Hut's mozzarella stick crust pizza of 2020 was part of a trend of what she referred to as a recent "parade of food mash-ups" in America, alongside ramen hamburger buns, sushi burritos and the Cronut.[23] Other American eateries used mozzarella sticks in unconventional ways around this time, including Denny's, which offered a grilled cheese sandwich that used mozzarella sticks,[24] and Walt Disney World, which offered a cheeseburger topped with mozzarella sticks.[25]

Preparation and serving

[edit]

Mozzarella sticks are made from slices or sticks from a larger block of cheese, or sticks of string cheese. These pieces are either dipped in batter or rolled in breadcrumbs before dipping in oil for frying. To prevent the cheese from melting and leaching out into the oil while cooking, the battered sticks are often frozen before frying.[26] Pre-prepared mozzarella sticks are also sold in frozen food sections of most grocery stores that can be either fried in oil or baked in an oven.

Mozzarella is the most popular cheese for frying because it's one of a few "melt-restricted" cheeses.[27] These are cheeses that can soften when heated, but won't lose their identity or separate because of their lower fat content and a larger network of the protein casein.[28][29] Alternative melt-restricted cheeses that could be used to make this dish include cheddar cheese,[27] Bel Paese[1][2] or cheese curds.[30] The UK supermarket Morrisons offers vegan mozzarella sticks that substitute cheese with a mixture of coconut oil and potato starch.[31]

They're served with dipping sauces, most commonly with tomato-based marinara sauce. Casual family restaurants often order a variety of dipping options, including ranch dressing and honey mustard. Mozzarella sticks with raspberry sauce are part of the regional cuisine of New York's Capital District.[32]

[edit]
  • Mozzarella in carrozza – An Italian dish with mozzarella cheese between two slices of bread that's battered and fried.[2][14]
  • Arancini – A Sicilian dish with a ball of rice that's breaded and fried, and may contain a variety of fillings often including mozzarella.[13]
  • Waffle iron mozzarella sticks – Instead of deep frying the sticks, they're cooked in a lightly greased waffle iron. This method avoids the use of oil and adds nooks for better dipping practices.[33][34]
  • Chicken mozzarella sticks – A hybrid of mozzarella sticks with chicken nuggets or chicken fingers.[35][36]
  • Bacon mozzarella sticks – In addition to or instead of breading, a layer of bacon is wrapped around the mozzarella cheese before frying.[37][38][39]
  • Pickle mozzarella sticks – A pickled cucumber is cored, stuffed with cheese, breaded and then deep-fried.[40]
  • Fried cheese donuts – German McDonald's locations offer rings of crispy battered and fried Camembert cheese. They are served with cranberry dipping sauce.[41][42]
  • Doritos Loaded – Shaped like a triangular chip, Doritos Loaded are a breaded and fried food filled with nacho cheese that are often compared to mozzarella sticks.[43][44]
  • Cheetos mozzarella sticks – An otherwise traditional mozzarella stick that uses either crushed regular or Flamin' Hot Cheetos instead of breadcrumbs.[45][46]
  • As a topping – Several American restaurants have used mozzarella sticks as a topping on other food items. In 2010, Denny's offered the "Fried Cheese Melt" that was four mozzarella sticks inside of a grilled cheese sandwich.[24] As a launch item for its 2013 late-night Jack's Munchie Meal menu, Jack in the Box offered the "Exploding Cheesy Chicken Sandwich" that included a layer of mozzarella sticks.[47] To promote the film Incredibles 2 in 2018, Walt Disney World offered a cheeseburger that included mozzarella sticks and was served on a bun grilled with the Incredibles logo.[25] The New Jersey restaurant Brother Bruno's serves a pizza that's topped with mozzarella sticks, among other things.[48] In 2020, Pizza Hut offered a specialty crust with bite-sized mozzarella stick "poppers" baked on top of the crust.[23]
  • As a flavor – Several bands of potato chips and other snack foods have released mozzarella-stick-flavored variations, including Ruffles, Lay's, Pringles and Goldfish.[49]
