About
Shredded mozzarella is a semi-soft stretched-curd cheese that packs loosely, weighing about 4 ounces (114 g) per cup.
Because of empty space between shreds, it has a bulk density of about 4.0 ounces per cup (0.48 g/mL), which is roughly half the density of water. In comparison, a solid block of mozzarella is much more compact and weighs nearly twice as much for the same volume. Denser, finely grated cheeses like parmesan pack more tightly and yield more weight per cup.
From Wikipedia
Mozzarella is a semi-soft non-aged cheese prepared using the pasta filata ('stretched-curd') method. It has a long history in southern Italy, although its precise origins are uncertain.
