About Oaxaca cheese
Oaxaca cheese, originating from the Mexican state of Oaxaca, is a white, semi-soft, string cheese made from cow's milk. It is crafted using a similar process to mozzarella, where curds are stretched and kneaded into long ribbons, then wound into a ball. Mild and buttery in flavor, Oaxaca cheese melts beautifully, making it a staple in Mexican cuisine for dishes like quesadillas, enchiladas, and empanadas. Nutritionally, it is a good source of protein and calcium, supporting muscle growth and bone health. However, it is also moderately high in saturated fat and sodium, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Its rich texture and versatility make it a favorite among cheese lovers worldwide.
