About Cottage Cheese
Requeijão is a dairy product obtained from whey, with a creamy texture and mild flavour. In Portugal, it is artisanally produced in various regions, especially valued in Serra da Estrela. It is the main ingredient in queijadas — one of the oldest Portuguese pastry recipes. At A Pharmácia da Avó, our Cottage Cheese Tartlets are prepared with locally produced fresh cottage cheese.
