Where to find ingredients
You can find essential items like milk, eggs, and oil at any local supermarket. For the 'polvilho doce' (sweet cassava starch), look in international specialty food aisles or health food stores. A substitute for the specific cheese profile is a mix of Parmesan and a semi-hard white cheese if original Brazilian varieties are unavailable.
