Chef tips
For a softer texture, grate the pear using the fine side of the grater. If you want a more defined shape, use small silicone molds.
Substitutions
You can replace the mozzarella with Monterey Jack or a mild melting fresh cheese. Plain yogurt can be swapped for light Greek yogurt, adding a little water if the mixture becomes too thick.
