Esfiha de Queijo is a savory pastry popular in Middle Eastern and Brazilian cuisines. This dish consists of a small, open-faced dough base topped with a creamy cheese mixture, often including mozzarella or feta, and occasionally other seasonings like parsley or oregano for added flavor. The dough is typically light and slightly chewy, made from flour, water, yeast, and a small amount of oil. Esfiha de Queijo offers a satisfying source of protein and calcium from the cheese, along with carbohydrates from the bread, making it a filling snack or appetizer. However, its healthfulness depends on preparation, as high-fat cheeses and added oils can increase calorie and saturated fat content. Enjoy it in moderation or opt for lower-fat cheese alternatives for a balanced approach while savoring this delicious cultural treat.
