About Coalho cheese
Coalho cheese, also known as "queijo coalho," is a traditional Brazilian cheese with a firm texture and mild, salty flavor. Made from cow’s milk, it typically consists of ingredients like pasteurized milk, salt, enzymes, and sometimes rennet. Popular in Brazilian cuisine, this cheese is a favorite for grilling due to its high melting point, often served on skewers or as a snack. Nutritionally, coalho cheese provides protein and calcium, which support muscle function and bone health. However, it is relatively high in sodium and saturated fat, which can be a concern for those monitoring heart health or blood pressure. Moderation is key in enjoying its benefits while minimizing risks. Overall, coalho cheese is an essential part of Brazil’s culinary tradition, valued for its versatility and distinctive taste.
