Pão de Queijo

Ingredients

1 cup milk
1 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
3 cups sweet tapioca flour (polvilho doce)
100 g grated cheese

Where to find ingredients

Look for 'polvilho doce' in Latin American markets or the international aisle of well-stocked supermarkets. It's a fine, white powder derived from cassava. If unavailable, tapioca starch (not flour) might be a distant substitute, but it will alter the texture.
A semi-hard to hard cheese with a salty flavor is traditional. Parmesan cheese is a common and accessible substitute in many countries. Look for 'Queijo Minas Meia Cura' or similar Brazilian cheeses in Latin American specialty stores for a more authentic flavor. In the US, a mix of Parmesan and a mild cheddar or Monterey Jack can also work.

Preparation method

  1. Boil the milk and let it cool
  2. Combine all ingredients except the grated cheese
  3. Beat in a blender
  4. Finally, add the grated cheese
  5. Beat again
  6. Pour the batter into greased individual molds
  7. Bake
