Catupiry is a creamy cheese spread originating from Brazil, widely recognized for its smooth texture and mild flavor. Made primarily from milk, cream, water, and cheese cultures, it often includes starch and salt to achieve its signature consistency. Commonly used in Brazilian cuisine, Catupiry enhances dishes like pies, pizzas, and esfihas, and is also a popular filling for stuffed chicken and pasta. While its high calcium content benefits bone health, Catupiry is also high in fat and calories, making it less ideal for diets focused on weight management or heart health. Moderation is key when enjoying this versatile cheese, as it adds richness to meals but can contribute to excess saturated fat intake when consumed excessively. Whether baked, spread, or melted, Catupiry remains a beloved staple of Brazilian gastronomy.
