About Cuajada
Cuajada is a traditional dairy product originating from Spain and Latin America. Made by heating milk—typically from sheep, cows, or goats—and curdling it with rennet, its texture is akin to a soft yogurt or gel-like custard. Often enjoyed as a dessert or snack, Cuajada can be served plain or enhanced with toppings such as honey, sugar, nuts, or fruit. Nutritionally, Cuajada is a good source of protein and calcium, supporting muscle health and bone strength. It is also lower in fat compared to some other dairy products, depending on the type of milk used. However, it can be high in saturated fat if made with whole milk, and added sweeteners may increase its sugar content. Cuajada's simplicity and versatility make it a cherished dish with deep ties to Mediterranean and Hispanic cuisines, blending nourishment and tradition in every bite.
