About Queso Chihuahua®
Wikipedia Article About Queso Chihuahua on Wikipedia Chihuahua cheese is a white cow's-milk cheese of Mexican origin available in braids, balls or rounds. Asadero, which means "roaster" or "broiler," has favorable melting properties and becomes softly stringy when heated--very similar to unaged Monterrey jack cheese.

Also called queso menonita, after the Mennonite communities of northern Mexico that first produced it. This cheese is now made by both Mennonites and non-Mennonites throughout the country.
