About Farinha de tapioca
Farinha de Tapioca, or tapioca flour, is a versatile starch derived from the cassava root, commonly used in Brazilian cuisine. This gluten-free flour is a staple for making traditional dishes like tapioca crepes and pão de queijo (cheese bread). Naturally bland in flavor, it serves as an excellent base for both sweet and savory recipes. Farinha de Tapioca is comprised mostly of carbohydrates, offering a quick source of energy. It is naturally low in fat and protein and contains no gluten, making it suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. However, its high carbohydrate content means it should be consumed in moderation, especially for those monitoring blood sugar levels. While it lacks significant amounts of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, it can be fortified or paired with nutrient-rich foods to enhance its nutritional profile.
