Country and Region of Origin: Mexico Type of Cheese: A fresh, cow's milk cheese. Texture: Soft, but still can be grated with a large hole grater. Rind: None. Tasting Notes: A mild, slightly salty cheese Wine Pairing: Serve this young, milky cheese with a light, fruity wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Noir. Or add a little extra Mexican flair, and serve it with a Sangria. Serving
Suggestions: The beauty of this cheese is that when heated, it softens but
doesn't melt. That's why it makes a creamy addition to recipes, and is often
used as a topping for spicy Mexican dishes such as enchiladas and empanadas.
