About Queso Fresco

Queso Fresco is a Mexican cheese made from cow's milk or a combination of cow and goat milk. It is soft, moist, and crumbly with a mild, slightly tangy flavor. Commonly used in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisines, it is great for crumbling over salads, tacos, and other dishes where a gentle, refreshing dairy flavor is desired.
