Cotija Cheese

A few days ago at Trader Joe's I found a nice slab of Cotija (Ko-Tee-Ha)cheese.

This is a Mexican cheese that is semi-hard and crumbles like Feta. It's flavor is somewhere between Feta and Parmesan. Slightly salty but not overpowering, it works nicely as a topping on tacos, enchiladas, salads and pasta.


I needed to make a quick meal for myself tonight so I boiled up some Linguine and tossed it with olive oil, garlic, baby spinach and fresh tomatoes. The grand finale was a little mountain of crumbled Cotija cheese. Perfect and satisfying!
