PãO DE QUEIJO (BRAZILIAN CHEESE BREAD)
Pão de Queijo is a popular Brazilian snack food, served day and night, that originated in the state of Minas Gerais. This cheese-filled bread is made with tapioca flour instead of wheat flour. Not only does the tapioca flour give the breads their classic texture, it makes the breads suitable for those following a gluten-free diet.
