Pao de Queijo (Brazilian Cheese Bread)

April 15, 2011 By Lokness 2 Comments

 

When I first tried pao de queijo in a Brazilian restaurant, I immediately fall in love with it. The texture of pao de queijo is not really like bread. It is gooey, chewy and savory. The cheese makes the bread amazing. It is very addictive. I can eat 5 -6 of them at a time. This recipe is very good, Bryan and I ate 12 bread all at once. Bryan likes the bread at room temperature, because they were less gooey. But I like my bread warm. If you are making this little bread, make sure to make extra. To complete your Brazilian night, this dish goes perfect with Brazilian chicken stroganoff.

 

Pao de Queijo (Brazilian Cheese Bread) (Adapted from Allrecipes.com)

12 – 15 small bread

Ingredients:

–   2 cups tapioca flour

–   1 – 1 ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

–   2 eggs (beaten)

–   ½ cup vegetable oil or butter

–   1/3 cup water

–   1/3 cup milk

–   1 teaspoon salt

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375˚F.
  2. In a large saucepan over high heat, combine and mix the oil, water, milk, and salt. When the mixture comes to a boil, remove from heat. Stir in the flour immediately and mix well. Set aside to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. Combine the cheese and egg into the mixture, and knead everything together. The mixture will be lumpy. Take a little bit of dough and roll out a golf-size ball. Place the ball on an ungreased baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
  4. Bake until the tops are slightly browned, 20 – 25 minutes. Don’t overbake, if not the bread will be too hard. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    I made this today and it worked fairly okay but was very oily after I boiled the ingredients together. I kneaded it and added the cheese and egg and it was super sticky and liquid so I added about 1/4 -1/2 cup more tapioca flour which made it kneadable. Instead of making the small ones I made 4 large ones and they seem to be going alright so far.

Have you been to @trejostacos? Other than amazing Have you been to @trejostacos? Other than amazing tacos, we love their cheesy bean dip. This is my copycat version of that dip. Looks ordinary, but layers with flavors! Creamy, savory, cheesy, little sweet & little citrusy. Give me a bowl of this dip & a bag of tortilla chips, I’ll be happy for a long time! Also, this dip can be made ahead. Just reheat & serve when ready.

Eton Mess w/ Strawberry, Mandarin Orange & Lemon. Eton Mess w/ Strawberry, Mandarin Orange & Lemon. Crunchy meringue cookies, fresh strawberries, sweet whipped cream, & my homemade tangy mandarin-orange lemon curd from last week. You can make most of these components ahead of time, just macerate the strawberries & whip the cream at the last minute. This is the spring dessert I want every year from now on! 🌸

Guys, this Mandarin Orange-Lemon Curd is so damn G Guys, this Mandarin Orange-Lemon Curd is so damn GOOD! You need this in your life!🍊🍋 First, you get the taste of Mandarin oranges. Sweet & floral. Then you get a little tanginess from the lemon. It’s creamy & smooth. I can almost eat this on its own, but I probably shouldn’t.😆 Put this on cupcakes, macarons, pavlova, yogurt, pancakes or anything you want. Best thing is that it only takes 15 mins to make!

On this day one year ago, California was officiall On this day one year ago, California was officially placed in lockdown. Offices, schools and shops were closed; restaurants only allowed takeout; shelves were empty at grocery stores. It was a scary time and still is today.  Oh, we were so naive thinking the lockdown was going to be for a short time!🤦🏻‍♀️

But good news is that there is hope in sight! Bryan & I were chatting w/ friends that this could be over in 2 or 3 months, max (SARS in Hong Kong lasted for about 2 months in 2003).

Infection numbers are down. Vaccines are here. I’m hoping that we’ll get our Fauci Ouchie soon. Dining out, traveling & hanging out with friends sound like the BEST things in 2021!

Hope you’re all healthy & hanging in there. My heart is with those who’re still recovering and have lost a loved one. You’re not forgotten.💕💕💕
It’s Friday junor! Time for a cocktail. This Bur It’s Friday junor! Time for a cocktail. This Burnt Mandarin Orange Gin & Tonic is an easy twist from a classic. How to make burnt oranges? Just sprinkle some sugar & torch with a blow torch. It’s just like making creme brûlée. That adds a really nice layer of flavors to the cocktail!
