In Brazil, tapioca flour is a staple in many dishes, including pão de queijo. Its unique properties give the bread its signature chewy and slightly elastic texture, making it different from traditional bread made with wheat flour. Tapioca flour also adds a subtle sweet flavor to the bread, which pairs perfectly with the savory cheese.
Queijo Minas has a mild and slightly tangy taste, similar to mozzarella, but with a softer texture. It melts beautifully and adds a creamy and cheesy flavor to the bread. If you can't find queijo Minas, you can substitute it with a mix of mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
