I can't live without it! Perfect!
Since I make a lot of cheese bread, I can't live without it! This tapioca starch has a great yield. It's a little more moist, which requires less egg addition, for those who use it to make cheese bread. It arrived fresh and well packaged.
Today we're having cheese bread . Always made with the best tapioca flour.

Frequently asked questions
What is pouvilho?

How do I store pouvilho?
Keep pouvilho in a sealed container in a cool, dry place. It can also be stored in the refrigerator or freezer for longer shelf life.
How do I substitute pouvilho in recipes?

How long does pouvilho last?
When stored properly in a sealed container, pouvilho can last up to a year or even longer, especially if kept in the freezer.
