Cuñapes
(Yucca starch and cheese bread)
Ingredients
3.3 pounds fresh cheese, grated
1.1 pounds yucca (also known as cassava or tapioca) starch
1 spoonful sugar
3 spoonfuls milk
salt to the taste (if the cheese is not salty)
Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix grated cheese,
yucca starch, sugar and salt (if the cheese is not salty).
Finally add milk, pouring little by little until having a smooth,
but not dry, dough.
