Ingredients

• 500 grams of sour starch
• 1 cup of water tea
• 1 cup of milk tea
• 1/2 cup of tea oil
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• 3 eggs
• 200 grams of grated half-cured Minas cheese
• 200 grams of grated parmesan cheese

Preparation

1. In a pan, place the water, milk, oil and salt and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, place the sour starch in a large bowl.

2. When the liquid mixture boils, pour it over the sprinkles in the bowl. Use a spoon to stir and moisten all the flour. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.

3. When the mixture is warm, add the eggs, one by one, while continuing to stir. The dough will begin to take shape.

4. Add the grated Minas cheese and parmesan to the dough and keep stirring. The dough should be homogeneous and easy to shape with your hands. If it's too dry, add a little more milk. If it's too wet, add a little more flour.

5. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. While the oven heats up, model the cheese breads. Take small portions of dough and make balls of the desired size. Place the balls on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between them.

6. Bake the cheese buns for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Exact times may vary depending on oven, so keep an eye out!

7. Remove the cheese buns from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. They're best eaten warm, but they're also delicious at room temperature.

Tips

If you want, you can freeze the cheese rolls before baking. Simply place the balls of dough on a baking sheet, place them in the freezer until firm, then transfer them to a plastic freezer bag. When you want to bake it, you don't need to defrost it: just place the frozen balls straight into the preheated oven.

Another tip is to experiment with different types of cheese. Half-cure Minas cheese and parmesan are the most traditional, but you can use other cheeses of your choice. How about a cheese bread with gorgonzola cheese, for example?

Finally, remember that the quality of the ingredients makes all the difference in the final result. Use a good sour sprinkle and quality cheeses to get delicious cheese breads.

Now that you know how to make cheese bread, just put your hand in the dough and enjoy! Bon appetit!
