Where to find ingredients
Mozzarella, provolone, and Parmesan cheeses are widely available in the dairy section of most supermarkets. Gorgonzola cheese can often be found in specialty cheese sections or larger supermarkets. Creamy spreadable cheese (often referred to as 'Catupiry style' in Brazil) might be available in Latin or international food aisles, or specialty cheese shops. Oregano is a common spice found in the spice aisle of any supermarket. If gorgonzola is difficult to find, a stronger blue cheese can be substituted. For the creamy spreadable cheese, cream cheese can be used as a substitute, though it will alter the texture and flavor profile slightly.
Preparation method
- In a bowl, combine the mozzarella, provolone, and Parmesan cheeses
- Add the chopped gorgonzola cheese and the creamy spreadable cheese
- Add oregano to taste
- Mix all ingredients very well until a homogeneous mixture is obtained
- Refrigerate to firm up and use the cold filling in the pastéis
