Where to find ingredients

Preparation method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated mozzarella, provolone, and parmesan cheeses.
- Add the crumbled gorgonzola cheese and the requeijão cremoso to the bowl.
- Sprinkle in the oregano to taste.
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly until you achieve a smooth, uniform consistency.
- Chill the filling in the refrigerator until firm, then use it cold to stuff your pastries.
