A baked Edam or Gouda cheese with a variety of fillings. It originates in Curaçao and the name, which derives from the Spanish queso (cheese) and relleno (stuffed) is in Papiamento, the patois of the Netherlands Antilles that is a mixture of Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, English and African words. Curiously enough the dish has been adopted by Chiapas and Yucatán in Mexico, where it was probably introduced some time in the last century by Dutch and German coffee men. It is called queso relleno there.
