About Panela cheese
Panela cheese, a staple in Mexican cuisine, is a fresh, soft cheese made from pasteurized cow's milk. Its mild, slightly tangy flavor and firm yet creamy texture make it versatile for various dishes, from salads to quesadillas. With a high moisture content, Panela cheese is lower in fat and calories compared to many aged cheeses, making it a lighter option for health-conscious consumers. It's a good source of essential nutrients like calcium, protein, and phosphorus, contributing to bone health and muscle repair. However, its sodium content can be relatively high, so moderation is advised, especially for those monitoring their salt intake. Panela's unique ability to hold its shape when heated makes it ideal for grilling or frying without melting completely. Whether crumbled onto tacos or enjoyed on its own, Panela is a flavorful, nutritious addition to your meals.
