Tetilla

Tetilla is a traditional Galician cheese made from pasteurized cow's milk in the Galicia region of Spain. Its name, "Tetilla," means "small breast" in Galician, aptly describing its pear-shaped form topped with a nipple-like protrusion. The cheese features a pale yellow, thin, natural rind, though sometimes it may appear rindless. Its texture is soft, thick, and smooth, with occasional air pockets. Yellowish ivory in color, Tetilla offers a creamy mouthfeel with buttery, slightly bitter, and tangy flavors that envelop the palate. Pair Tetilla with a light wine such as Albariño. In Spain, it's enjoyed with crusty bread, fruits, crackers, and baked dishes.
