Queijo Prato is a semi-soft, yellow cheese originating from Brazil, inspired by Dutch cheeses like Edam and Gouda. Made from pasteurized cow's milk, it has a smooth texture and a mild, slightly buttery flavor, making it versatile in a variety of dishes such as sandwiches, melts, and snacks. Nutritionally, it is a good source of protein and calcium, which support muscle health and bone strength. However, it is also relatively high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Its creamy consistency and easy melting make it a favorite in Brazilian cuisine, offering a comforting and flavorful addition to meals while providing key nutrients when enjoyed thoughtfully.
