Bring
on the authentic flavors of Mexico, Spain and other
Latin American countries; Americans are ready! According
to a recent report on Hispanic food and beverage trends
released by Companiesandmarkets.com, non-Hispanic
Americans have developed an increased appetite for
Latino cuisine. The rapid growth in America’s Hispanic
population has also lead to increased demand for
authentic Hispanic and Nuevo Latino foods. With the
abundance of Hispanic products now available, it’s easy
to move beyond basic burritos and tacos by starting in
the dairy aisle of your grocery store. California is the
number one producer of Hispanic dairy products in the
country, offering more than 25 varieties and styles of
Hispanic-style cheeses bearing the Real California
Cheese seal.
With so many Hispanic cheeses to choose from, it can be
a little overwhelming to know which to select and what
the proper usage is for home cooking. The California
Milk Advisory Board makes it easy with an at-a-glance
tip sheet on Hispanic cheeses found at
www.realcaliforniamilk.com
and recipes for using these delicious ingredients at
home. Try your hand at infusing your next fiesta or
gathering with Latin flair with this recipe that
features a classic Hispanic cheese in an updated savory
version of a traditional dish. Oaxaca French Toast with
Salsa offers a large quantity size recipe that is
perfect for in-home celebrations, such as Cinco de Mayo
celebrations, Mother’s Day brunch, graduation fiestas or
the family barbecue.
From
Manchego and Queso Freso to Cotija and Oaxaca, you don’t
have to get on a plane to explore the flavors of Mexico.
Hispanic dairy products are designed to add flavor, salt
and in some cases, cooling properties to the fiery
flavors often associated with Latino cuisine. Try crema
tossed with your favorite fruit for a light and tangy
salad. Calcium-rich drinkable yogurts in flavors like
Mango and Pineapple are an easy, portable way to add a
delicious tropical Latin flavor to your diet. Real
California dairy products, including Hispanic cheeses
and dairy products such as drinkable yogurt and crema,
are distributed throughout California and nationally. To

non-Hispanic dairy products and to find a whole host of

Dairy
products made with Real California milk can be
identified by looking for the Real California Milk and
Real California Cheese seals, which certify that the
products are made exclusively with milk produced on
California dairy farms. Ninety-nine percent of
California dairy farms are family-owned. California
produces more fluid milk, butter, ice cream, yogurt and
nonfat dry milk than any other state. The state is the
second-largest producer of cheese, including Hispanic
cheeses, which is available nationally under the Real
California Cheese seal.
