Queso blanco is a type of white cheese that is fresh and un aged and often described as being a cross between cottage cheese and mozzarella cheese.

Queso blanco cheese is often made from skim cow milk and does not melt particularly well although it does soften nicely when it's heated.

Queso blanco is a common type of cheese in Mexico and is a creamy, fresh cheese with a mild and slightly salty and sour tang to it.

Queso Blanco is a firm cheese that is used for frying and is often paired with guava paste.

Queso blanco cheese also goes by queso fresco and queso blanco del pais.

Queso Blanco is a great cheese that is found throughout Latin America and is produced from simple acid coagulation with a high acid ingredient such as lemon juice.

The main difference between Queso Fresco and Queso Blanco is in the ingredients and what it's made from.

Queso fresco is made with rennet and queso blanco is made from milk that has been curdled with an acid like lemon juice or vinegar.

The names queso fresco and queso blanco are commonly used interchangeably by some people but they are different.

It's basically the ingredients and how it's made that makes queso fresco and queso blanco different from each other.

They do taste similar in my opinion though and both are delicious.
