About COTIJA, MEXICAN STYLE AGED GRATED CHEESE
Verole's cotija is a dry-aged, grated Mexican cheese made from pasteurized milk with salt, cellulose powder, cultures, enzymes, and natamycin as a natural mold inhibitor. Cotija in its aged form is salty, crumbly, and intensely flavored, closer in character to parmesan or dry feta than to fresh Mexican cheeses. Fat and protein are both high, carbs are minimal, and the salt content runs noticeably elevated. Use it in small quantities as a finishing cheese over tacos, beans, elotes, or salads, where a little delivers a lot of flavor.
Ingredients
PASTEURIZED MILK, SALT, CELLULOSE POWDER FOR FRESHNESS, CHEESE CULTURES, ENZYMES, AND NATAMYCIN (A NATURAL MOLD INHIBITOR).
