About Oaxaco cheese
Oaxaca cheese, originating from the Oaxaca region of Mexico, is a semi-soft, white cheese known for its distinctive stringy texture, similar to mozzarella. Made from cow’s milk, it is traditionally prepared through a process of stretching and kneading, which gives it its characteristic consistency and mild, buttery flavor. Oaxaca cheese is rich in protein and calcium, contributing to strong bones and muscles. However, it is also relatively high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be considered if consumed regularly or in large amounts. Its versatility makes it a staple in Mexican cuisine, commonly used in quesadillas, tacos, and baked dishes due to its excellent melting properties. While it can be part of a balanced diet, moderation is key to enjoying its flavor while maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
