Queijo coalho or Queijo de coalho (Portuguese pronunciation: [keiˈʒu ˈkwaʎu] coalho cheese) is a firm but very lightweight cheese produced in Northeastern Brazil with an almost ‘squeaky’ texture when bitten into. It is a popular and cheap snack on the beach in Brazil where walking vendors brown rectangular slabs of it in hand-held charcoal ovens often with a sprinkling of oregano and garlic-flavored sauce. It is eaten off a stick much like a kebab. Many people also eat it with molasses.
