111 - Weird Cheese Balls [Pau De Queijo]

I have some rather great friends, many of which I rarely see these days, so it's always refreshing on meeting with one to know that you can pick up where you left off. This led to a trip to Edinburgh to catch up with the lovely Judith. Judith and I love weird and wonderfully textured food and this led to a love of the squishy Asian Mochi (first tried at an eventful free wine event which led to a trip to see Fylan Moran) and their savoury Brazillian counterparts....

 
The Verdict:

I still have no idea about these. They are so weird, and kind of defy logic and gravity. Like a strange love child of gnocchi and cheese thins. Still being curiously attracted to bizzare and unusual things I naturally love them.  Thanks Judith! We have no idea if we are even making them right due to Portuguese instructions but definitely an acquired delicacy!
