About Joelho de queijo e presunto
Joelho de Queijo e Presunto is a beloved Brazilian snack commonly enjoyed in bakeries and cafes. Its name, translating to "ham and cheese knee," reflects its folded shape. This pastry consists of a soft, fluffy dough filled with slices of ham and melted cheese, often seasoned with a touch of oregano for added flavor. Typically baked until golden, it has a light, savory texture that makes it a popular comfort food. While rich in protein from the ham and cheese, it also contains refined carbohydrates and fats, making it an indulgent treat rather than a health-focused option. Moderation is key, as its satisfying taste and high calorie count may tempt overindulgence. Perfect with coffee or as a midday snack, Joelho de Queijo e Presunto represents Brazil's love for easy, flavorful bites.
