Bolinha de Queijo (Cheese)

A Bolinha de Queijo (pronounced boh-LEE-nyah jee KAY-zhoo), meaning “cheese ball” in Portuguese, is a very popular and delicious savory snack in Brazil, especially beloved as a party finger food (salgadinho).

• Appearance: They are small, round balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.

• Texture: They have a wonderful contrast: a crispy, golden-brown exterior thanks to being deep-fried and breaded, and a soft dough filled with gooey, melted cheese.

• Flavor: Richly cheesy and savory. They are typically served piping hot so the cheese is at its melting point.
