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.

When planning the trip to Denver, I realized Safta When planning the trip to Denver, I realized Safta @eatwithsafta is opened by the same chef who started Shaya in New Orleans. We went to Shaya back in 2019. Fantastic food & very memorable! So we knew we had to go to Safta. 

Menu is very similar to Shaya. We ordered a bunch of stuffs & we enjoyed every single thing. That really doesn’t happen often. The food was perfectly balanced. Nothing felt heavy or overwhelming. That braised lamb shank fell off the bone w/ that creamy labneh & sweet pomegranate sauce. The charred cabbage was also phenomenal. Sweet & charred. Semifreddo was just the ending we hope for. Iced cold w/ strong coffee granita & rich chocolate. 

We came w/ really high expectations, & we were very happy at the end of the meal. If you’re visiting Denver, do not think twice, you need to eat at Safta!

Being close to nature is the main goal of this Den Being close to nature is the main goal of this Denver trip. We hiked, saw a couple lakes & mountains, & got attacked by tons of mosquitoes. We were exhausted from the high altitude, heat & hiking, but felt amazing!

1) Hallet Peak & Dream Lake at the Rocky Mountain
2) Selfie
3) We got attacked by mosquitoes. Whenever we posed for pictures, the mosquitoes immediately attacked. If you look closely, you can see a mosquito near Bryan’s face. 🦟

It’s Friyay! All I can think about is this bagel It’s Friyay! All I can think about is this bagel from @bagelandslice. Tried this a couple weeks ago. Bagels are not overly chewy, just perfect. Lox was good w/ the scallion cream cheese. We got there early enough that the line was not long. Going back soon! Btw, they also do pizzas too!

Growing up, I looked forward to my mom’s mango p Growing up, I looked forward to my mom’s mango pudding every summer. That creamy & soft pudding is loaded w/ tons of fresh mangoes. My version is pretty much the same, but I switch out the mango-flavored gelatin mix for fresh mangoes. It tastes incredible & brings me back to my childhood right away! It was the perfect dessert when I was a kid, and it’s still the most satisfying dessert today! 🥭
