  • About

Cuajada is a cheese prepared with fresh, raw, non-pasteurized milk. It is soft, not very salty and goes perfectly with many candied or fresh fruits. It is served at many outdoors events in the Andean and colder regions of Colombia. People on farms prepare it weekly, and eat it with Melado after lunch or dinner.
