So, what is queso curado?

Queso curado, also known as "aged cheese", is a Spanish cheese made from cow's milk that has been cured for several months. It has a hard, crumbly texture and a sharp, nutty flavor that intensifies with age. The cheese is typically aged for at least six months to a year, during which time it develops a natural rind and a deep orange color. Queso curado is often grated or shaved over dishes like salads, soups, and pastas, or eaten on its own as a snack paired with wine or fruit. Its complex flavor profile makes it a popular choice for culinary enthusiasts looking to add depth to a variety of dishes.
