Panela Navarro is a fresh, white cheese with a mild and refreshing flavor, and one of the most popular Mexican cheeses. It is made exclusively from 100% pasteurized whole cow’s milk, without preservatives, colorants, or artificial flavors, in line with the philosophy of its producer, Quesos Navarro. It is characterized by a soft, juicy texture with a high moisture content, which is why it often retains a bit of natural whey on the surface.
Thanks to its firm structure, it does not melt when baked or grilled, but retains its shape, making it ideal for preparing hot dishes as well as for adding to cold meals. In the kitchen, it can be used in various ways — cut into cubes for salads, served with tortillas, tacos, or as an addition to sandwiches. It can be baked, grilled, or served fresh with vegetables and seasonings.
Thanks to its mild aroma and neutral saltiness, it blends easily into both savory and lightly seasoned dishes.
