Where to find ingredients
Sour tapioca starch (polvilho azedo) can usually be found in the baking or international aisle of large supermarkets, or more reliably in Latin or Brazilian specialty stores. It is sometimes labeled as tapioca flour or starch, but ensure it is the 'azedo' (sour) variety for this recipe. Baking soda or baking powder can be used as a substitute if sour tapioca starch is unavailable, though the flavor will be different. Eggs, olive oil, milk, salt, and water are standard pantry items found in any grocery store.
Preparation method
- In a bowl, mix the sour tapioca starch, egg yolk, olive oil, milk, and salt
- Gradually add the hot water and mix until a homogeneous dough forms
- Transfer the dough to a plastic bag with a small hole at one end
- On an ungreased baking sheet, shape the crackers into rings or your preferred shape
- Place in a preheated oven at 250°C (480°F)
- Bake until the crackers are golden brown
