Majorero cheese is also known as Queso Fuerteventura since it is made from the unpasteurized milk of Majorera goats on the island of Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands. This semi-hard, firm cheese with nutty and milky flavors has been granted PDO certification (Protected Designation of origin). The pale white colored cheese is creamy, buttery, and a little gummy in texture with an acidic taste. When aged, it develops a dark-colored rind which is rubbed with pimento, Spanish paprika, roasted gofio, or with oil giving it different textures and tastes. The cheese can be served as a snacking cheese, a dessert cheese. It also goes well with pasta, fruits and vegetables. 7oz
