About Keso
Keso, derived from the Spanish word "queso" meaning cheese, refers to a variety of cheese types enjoyed in many cuisines, particularly in Spanish, Latin American, and Filipino dishes. Its flavor and texture can range from soft and crumbly, like queso fresco, to aged and sharp, such as manchego. Keso is a rich source of protein and calcium, essential for bone health and muscle function. Depending on the type, it may also provide vitamins A and B12. However, it can be high in saturated fats and sodium, so moderation is key, especially for those managing heart health or blood pressure. Whether melted in a dish, paired with fruits, or crumbled as a topping, keso adds depth and creaminess to meals while delivering key nutrients. Always opt for fresh or minimally processed versions to maximize its nutritional benefits.
