    Domestic.Goddess: it is a sticky dough but just use water (not oil or flour) to wet the spoon(s) and your hands when you roll them - makes life much easier

    I've been to Brazil 5 times now, staying for weeks or even a month at a time, and this makes better than most of the Pao de Queijo they serve there - right up top with the best I've had in Brazil! I normally eat them plain, they're that good, but funnily enough also quite nice with jams and marmalades (cheese and marmalade is a classic combo after all, or at least in the UK).

    I made these tonight and they are delicious but please can you tell me what they are supposed to be like inside? The cheesey centre stayed gooey in mine. Is that correct?

    I use two tablespoons to roll the dought into balls and then place them in ice cube trays. I hate getting my hands sticky too tmrc_emoticons.) After they freeze, I just transfer the "cubic balls" to a ziplock bag.

    Delicious! tmrc_emoticons.)

    When I was making them I vowed never to do it again as the mixture was SO sticky to make into balls it was frustrating.......however, once they were cooked and hot out of the oven, they tasted so good that I will certainly have to make them again and perservere with the stickiness (unless someone has some other tips apart from oiling your hands?!)  tmrc_emoticons.)

    Can you make these with any other type of flour?

  • 13. June 2014 - 12:17

    I wish you could like comments!  Milling your own tapioca and the hints that tekrica gave - fantastic!

    Hi, Kate!

    In Brazil we eat them as breakfast or afternoon snack. So you can eat it while drinking coffee, tea, milk, soda. You can sprinke bacon on top before baking them and after baking them you can fill it with sweet or savoury dips, even Vegemite. But in Brazil we normally fill them with the following cream cheese, cheddar, cream cheese with olives, guava marmalada and milk jam. You can definitely use your imagination.
