We are LA VACA FELIZ, located in Dongguan and we have been producing fresh cheeses in China for three years with fresh milk from a local farm.
The business is run by Alessandro and his sister Lila, both Brazilians, who missed the taste of fresh cheeses and couldn’t find them in the local market.
The farm where the milk comes from is located in Qingyuan, it is a small family run business with aproximately 60 cows and from the cow to the final cheese, it takes about 8 hours.
We produce the cheeses weekly to guarantee the freshest product on your table.

Our Cheeses
FRESCO

It is not good for cooking, except with beef or pork, also grilled with sauces such as soy sauce until rubbery. It can be used to make sandwiches, pastries, and crêpes, but it gets slightly rubbery instead of stringy with heat. It pairs well with turkey breast and other low fat cold cuts, cooked onions, tomato, as well as salad rockets, cooked spinach and other strong-tasting vegetables.

RICOTTA

Literally meaning “recooked” because the whey is first allowed to become more acidic, then heated to near boiling, which causes the protein to precipitate, forming a fine layer of curds, which are creamy white in appearance, and slightly sweet in taste. In this form, it is somewhat similar in texture to some cottage cheese variants, though considerably lighter. Perfect to be consumed with fruit, in salads, inside deserts or on its own seasoned with salt, pepper and olive oil.

SALADO

Both these cheeses are often served with goiabada, a sweet product made out of guavas similar to quince cheese. When these two flavors are combined it is known as romeu-e-julieta, and this combination can be eaten as it is or used in a wide variety of dishes like cake, pie or ice cream. They also pair well with other forms of fruit preserve or Dulce de leche.

CURADO

It is excellent for cooking, being used for a huge variety of dishes of all types, including pastel de queijo and the famous pão de queijo (cheese bun).

COALHO

It is a popular and cheap snack for beach-goers in Brazil or in homemade churrasco, where the cheese is cooked over a charcoal grill, often with a sprinkling of oregano or garlic-flavored sauce. It is eaten off a stick, much like a kebab. It gets a golden surface when grilled, and does not melt much.

MOZZARELLA

Mozzarella is normally used for most types of pizza and several pasta dishes, or served with sliced tomatoes and basil in Caprese
salad.

OAXACA

The production process is complicated and involves stretching the cheese into long ribbons and rolling it up like a ball of yarn.
Italian mozzarella is another cheese which is processed by stretching, it is used widely in Mexican cuisine, especially in quesadillas and empanadas, where it is melted and other ingredients, such as huitlacoche and squash flowers, are added to the filling.

PÃO DE QUEIJO

Pão de queijo originated from African slaves like many other Brazilian foods. At the end of the 19th century, more ingredients became available to the Afro-Brazilian community such as milk and cheese. They added milk and cheese to the tapioca roll making what we now know as Pão de queijo. It is also widely eaten in northern Argentina and is inexpensive and often sold from streetside stands by vendors carrying a heat-preserving container.
In Brazil, it is also very commonly found in groceries, supermarkets and bakeries, industrialized or freshly made.
Despite being referred to as “bread”, the Cheese Bread is basically a type of starch tart cookie or sweet plus eggs, salt vegetable oil and cheese, with soft and elastic consistency and with a few variations.

ESFIHAS

In Brazil, sfihas are street popular food because they are cheap and fast. Sfihas are oven baked and come in two shapes: folded into a triangular pastry like fatayer, and open-faced (4 inches round flat bread); with various toppings, including cheese, curd, lamb, beef or vegetables.
Every family has their own preference on what to add in addition to the meat. We make ours in five different varieties: Meat, Sausage, Chicken, Ricotta and Requeijão, and Ricotta and Spinach
