pão de queijo

tonight i made brazilian cheese rolls:

i used a yoki mix but you can also find recipes online to make them from scratch. here are the directions (the instructions are in portuguese): add 1/2 cup water, 2 eggs to the mix; bake for 40 min at 350 degrees. i normally add an additional 1/4 cup of shredded cheese mix (mozzarella, romano, asiago, parmesan work well) but didn ‘t have any tonight—i have to say, they taste much better with the extra cheese… also, i usually bake for less time—somewhere between 20-30 min so they are chewier and less dry.

  • in bolivia they’re called cuñapes
    and in france they’re called something else
    but try this recipe:
    1cup yuca flour (from yuca the root)
    1cup queso ranchero (white cheese comes in rounds)
    1 egg
    roll into small balls
    indent with thumb on bottom before placing on ungreased pan
    cook 20 min 350F

  • oh! even better, thank you for the recipe!

  • can’t go wrong with cheese and dough..

  • yummm! I was making these for a while last year with tapioca flour (the same as yucca or manioc) and parmesan cheese. I even had some pre-cooked dough balls frozen for future use. Yeah, they didn’t last very long. Must make more…
