Pão de queijo is a common Brazilian tidbit, initially from the states Minas Gerais and Goiás. It’s not precisely known where and when it began; however, it is thought that it was around the eighteenth century, during the servitude time frame, in the “fazendas minerals” (ranches situated in Minas Gerais).
It was standard to serve the masters bread and espresso in the early evening (subsequently our “evening espresso” rather than “evening tea”). Nonetheless, in Brazil, wheat items just began being to a great extent created during the 20s, so the cooks needed to utilize manioc items. Those were generally accessible since they were used sometime before colonization. To make the bread, they needed to utilize custard flour (or manioc starch), and afterward, by blending it in with cheddar, they made the first pães de queijo from Minas.
The pães de queijo heated in wood-consuming ovens and were set up with fixings delivered in their own ranches.
Quick forward to the 50’s the point at which the formula got famous everywhere in the country and afterward again until these days when it’s well known about in the world.
