» Queso Blanco «
Traditional, creamery, fresh cheese made from cow's milk. The name simply means "white cheese". It resembles a cross between mozzarella and salty cottage cheese. Traditionally, it is produced from skimmed milk or whey, coagulated with lemon juice, although recently some creameries have begun making it with full-cream milk, coagulated with rennet. The curd is scaled and pressed to create an elastic texture which holds its shape when heated. The flavor is milky, creamy and lemon-fresh. It is wonderful to cook with, because unlike American-type cheeses, it will become soft and creamy when heated but will not melt! With this cheese
you can make stuffed chicken breasts, stuffed peppers, enchiladas and burritos!
