This October, Queijaria Vale da Estrela resumed the production of Serra da Estrela cottage cheese, a product resulting from the production of Serra da Estrela PDO Cheese and Bordaleira Serra da Estrela sheep’s milk.

Serra da Estrela cottage cheese comes in the form of a creamy, smooth and uniform mass, with a well-connected texture, smooth when cut and white in color. The taste and aroma are very pleasant, awakening the senses, emotions and melting in the mouth.

The art of artisanal production of Serra da Estrela PDO cheese is considered a cultural heritage of the geographical region of production, in some municipalities of Serra da Estrela. The Serra da Estrela PDO cottage cheese is highly appreciated for being a product with a high percentage of proteins and low fat content. It can be eaten plain, mixed with toast and honey, pumpkin jam with or without pieces of walnut, hazelnut or almond. In the past, it was preferably dissolved in milk or coffee.

Now that you know that Serra da Estrela PDO Cottage Cheese, this national gastronomic heritage, has again been available until the end of June, just look for us in the usual points of sale to have in your table this creamy, soft and unique flavor again.
