Bolo do Caco is a traditional bread from Madeira, Portugal, enjoyed for its distinct flavor and soft texture. Made primarily from wheat flour, water, sweet potato, and yeast, this flatbread is shaped into a round disk and cooked on a hot stone or flat surface. Its inclusion of sweet potato enriches the bread with natural sugars, fiber, and essential nutrients like vitamin A and potassium. Bolo do Caco is typically served warm, often spread with garlic butter and paired with soups, stews, or grilled meats. While its use of sweet potato adds nutritional benefits, the addition of garlic butter may increase saturated fat and calorie content. Moderation and mindful pairings can make it a balanced choice within a Mediterranean-inspired cuisine. Rich in cultural history and flavor, Bolo do Caco offers a satisfying and versatile option for bread lovers seeking a taste of Madeira.
