About Queijo faixa azul

Queijo Faixa Azul is a classic Brazilian blue cheese celebrated for its creamy texture and tangy, slightly salty flavor. Originating from Brazil, it draws inspiration from traditional European blue cheeses while offering its own distinct profile. Made from high-quality cow's milk, it undergoes careful aging to develop its signature blue-veined character, enhanced by cultures of Penicillium roqueforti. Rich in calcium and protein, it supports bone health and muscle growth; however, its high sodium and saturated fat content means moderation is key for those managing heart health or sodium intake. Perfect for spreading on crackers, pairing with wines, or adding a bold touch to salads and sauces, Queijo Faixa Azul is not only a versatile ingredient but also a delightful indulgence in Brazilian cuisine.
