Queijo Derretido, meaning "melted cheese" in Portuguese, is a creamy and indulgent cheese dish often associated with Brazilian cuisine. Made by melting cheeses like mozzarella, cheddar, or Minas cheese, it’s typically enriched with milk or cream for a velvety texture. Some variations include spices, herbs, or even a touch of wine for added flavor. While it is a rich source of calcium and protein, Queijo Derretido is also high in saturated fats and sodium, making it a dish best enjoyed in moderation. Its smooth and flavorful profile makes it a popular accompaniment for bread, vegetables, or as a topping for casseroles. Whether served as a dip or spread, this comforting dish offers a versatile and satisfying treat, blending traditional flavors with hearty indulgence.
