Monterey jack
Monterey Jack is a type of cheese that comes from dairy. It is a popular choice known for its mild flavour and creamy texture. This cheese originated in the United States, specifically in Monterey, California, hence the name.
To make Monterey Jack cheese, fresh cow's milk is pasteurised and then mixed with a starter culture and rennet, which helps form curds. The curds are heated and stirred until they reach a specific consistency. The cheese is then pressed into blocks and aged for a few weeks to develop its flavour.
Monterey Jack cheese is often used in cooking due to its ability to melt smoothly. It can be found in dishes like quesadillas, macaroni and cheese, and sandwiches. Its mild taste makes it a versatile ingredient that pairs well with various flavours, making it a common choice in many kitchens.
