Arzùa-Ulloa is a cheese made from raw or pasteurized cow’s milk. This cheese is produced in Galicia, in Northwestern Spain, where it matures for at least 6 days. It is a mild cheese whose flavor is reminiscent to that of butter and yogurt.
The cheese has a smooth and somewhat waxy rind dotted with blue or white mold spots. The interior hides a smooth, velvety texture and is white to pale yellow in color. Arzùa-Ulloa is often served as a component of a dessert, but it can also be melted over toasted bread.
