Oaxaca cheese<\/strong>, pronounced \"wah-HA-kah\", is a white, semi-soft cow's milk cheese<\/a> that originated from the state of Oaxaca in southern Mexico. It has a mild, buttery flavor similar to mozzarella<\/a> or young Monterey Jack<\/a>, with a bit of saltiness and a texture that stretches when melted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"What<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Oaxaca goes by many names like queso Oaxaca, quesillo, Mexican mozzarella, Oaxacan-style string cheese,<\/strong> or rope cheese<\/strong>. It gets its stretchy texture from being part of the pasta filata<\/strong> (spun paste) family of cheeses, which also includes mozzarella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
