Where to find ingredients
You can find these cheeses at larger supermarkets in Lusaka or specialty delis. Look for fresh dairy sections for mozzarella and parmesan. Requeijão cremoso is a unique Brazilian processed cream cheese; if unavailable, a thick, full-fat cream cheese can serve as a substitute for consistency, though the flavor profile will differ.
Preparation method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated mozzarella, provolone, and parmesan.
- Fold in the chopped gorgonzola and the requeijão cremoso.
- Add the dried oregano according to your preference.
- Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until you achieve a uniform, consistent blend.
- Refrigerate the mixture to firm up, then use the chilled filling to stuff your pastries.
