THE RETURN OF VALE DA ESTRELA PDO COTTAGE CHEESE

A Queijaria Vale da Estrela já retomou a produção de requeijão Vale da Estrela DOP após o período de gestação das ovelhas bordaleiras.

A comercialização do requeijão Vale da Estrela DOP está também a ser retomada nos habituais pontos de venda.

Vale da Estrela Dairy has already resumed production of Vale da Estrela PDO cheese after the gestation period of the Bordaleira sheep.

The sale of the Vale da Estrela PDO cottage cheese is also being resumed at the usual points of sale.

In this second year of production of cottage cheese and taking into account the recommendations of national and international health organizations, Vale da Estrela slightly reduced the amount of salt in order to guarantee the usual flavor and at the same time contributing to the prevention of diseases. We want the life of our customers to be long.

The Vale da Estrela PDO cottage is obtained by draining the curd that results from the production of Serra da Estrela PDO cheese. It is deliciously tender, with a creamy, white, slightly grainy, soft mass that melts delicately in the mouth.

It should be kept in the fridge and served fresh, with bread, crackers or toast. In the company of a good jam, it is a classic Beira dessert.
