Queso fresco is a Mexican cheese made from cow’s milk and is more similar to a fresh farmer’s cheese than any other kind of cheese. It has a mild flavor and crumbly texture that makes it ideal for tacos or burritos. The traditional way to eat queso fresco is in the form of quesadillas (a tortilla grilled on one side then stuffed with a mix of elements like peppers, onions, etc., before being folded over). You can also use it in a salad. Queso fresco is made in many parts of Mexico but the best comes from Oaxaca, where it’s known as quesillo.
