About Ranchero cheese

Ranchero cheese is a fresh, soft Mexican-style cheese known for its creamy texture and mild, slightly tangy flavor. Made primarily from milk, salt, and natural cultures, this cheese is free from artificial additives. It’s commonly used in Mexican cuisine, adding richness to dishes like enchiladas, tacos, and quesadillas. Ranchero cheese is a good source of protein and calcium, contributing to bone and muscle health. However, it is typically high in sodium and fat, so moderation is recommended for those watching their sodium intake or managing cholesterol levels. Its simplicity in ingredients makes it versatile and easy to pair with fresh vegetables or fruits, enhancing the nutritional profile of meals. Whether crumbled, sliced, or melted, Ranchero cheese provides a flavorful and creamy addition to traditional recipes while offering essential nutrients.
