In the southern state of Oaxaca, where it originated, it is called quesillo. As its popularity spread throughout Mexico, and when the cheese migrated to the US, it became known as queso Oaxaca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Queso Oaxaca is a stretched-curd cheese made from fresh cow\u2019s milk, crafted by kneading and stretching curds in hot water to form long, rope-like strands. Each strand is then wrapped around itself to form queso Oaxaca\u2019s signature ball-of-yarn shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cheese\u2019s mildly acidic and milky notes make it perfect for melting in quesadillas or enchiladas, shredded on top of soups or refried beans, or sliced for a simple snack during cocktail hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Quesillo Oaxaca provided by <a href=\"https:\/\/quesosnavarro.com\/\">Quesos Navarro<\/a>.
