About Asadero cheese

Asadero cheese, originating from Mexico, is a creamy, semi-soft cheese renowned for its mild flavor and excellent melting properties. Traditionally made from cow's milk, it contains essential nutrients like protein, calcium, and phosphorus, which contribute to bone health and muscle function. Asadero is commonly used in dishes like quesadillas, enchiladas, and casseroles due to its smooth texture and ability to stretch when melted. While it provides nutritional benefits, its fat and sodium content should be considered in a balanced diet. It is often enjoyed in moderation as part of a wholesome, protein-rich meal. Perfect for Mexican cuisine or any recipe requiring a melty, flavorful cheese, Asadero adds authenticity and richness to your creations.
