O Que Você Precisa Saber

- Scalding the cassava starch with boiling liquids is an indispensable step to pre-gelatinize the starch and give structure to the dough. - The eggs should only be added when the mixture is warm so they do not cook prematurely. - Minas cheese grated on the coarse grater provides authentic flavor without leaving the dough oily in the oven.

Ingredients

Main Course

500g sweet cassava starch
250ml milk
100ml of oil
2 eggs
200g of grated Minas cheese
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Main Course

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

In a large bowl, mix the cassava starch and salt.

Heat the milk and oil in a pot until boiling.

Pour the hot mixture over the polvilho and stir with a wooden spoon until a homogeneous dough forms.

Let the dough cool a little and add the eggs, one by one, mixing well.

Incorporate the grated cheese and mix until well distributed.

With greased hands, shape into small balls and place them on the baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Chef Tips

- Grease your hands with a little vegetable oil to shape the balls without sticking the dough to the palm of your fingers. - Leave at least 2 cm of space between each cheese bread on the baking sheet, as they grow quite a bit while baking. - Do not open the oven door in the first 15 minutes to prevent the structure from falling with the temperature shock.

Variations

- Pão de queijo recheado: insira um cubinho de goiabada cascão ou requeijão de corte no centro antes de fechar a bolinha. - Com ervas secas: misture uma colher de sopa de orégano ou alecrim picadinho à massa junto com o queijo. - Versão picante: adicione uma pitada de pimenta-do-reino moída na hora na etapa do sal.

Substitutions

- O queijo minas padrão pode ser substituído por queijo canastra meia-cura, queijo prato ou parmesão ralado fino. - Metade do polvilho doce pode ser trocada por polvilho azedo se desejar pães mais aerados e com casca mais firme. - O óleo de soja pode ser substituído por óleo de milho, girassol ou banha de porco morna.

How to Store

Consume preferably warm right after coming out of the oven. Baked Pao de Queijo can be stored in a sealed container for up to 2 days; to recover the texture, reheat in the electric oven or air fryer for 3 minutes.

Can You Freeze It?

O congelamento das bolinhas cruas é ideal. Disponha-as em uma assadeira no freezer por 2 horas até endurecerem e transfira para sacos plásticos por até 3 meses; asse direto do congelador sem precisar descongelar.

What to Serve With

Traditional combination with fresh coffee brewed in a cloth filter or hot coffee with milk for breakfast. For a complete afternoon snack, serve with creamy requeijão and pepper jelly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the mixture of milk and oil need to boil before pouring over the sour starch?

The boiling of the liquids is what accomplishes the scalding, a process that cooks the sweet tapioca starch and ensures the correct elasticity of the crumb.
