Widely used in Mexican cooking, queso fresco literally means “fresh
cheese.” Queso fresco is a firm textured white cheese with a mild,
slightly salty taste. It has a moderate fat content (about 6 grams of
fat per ounce) and is good for crumbling over salads, enchiladas,
tacos, black bean soup, and other dishes. Queso fresco is also good in
quesadillas. It softens when heated, but does not melt like cheddar or
Monterey Jack.
