Funzionalità Premium
Coxinha de Pato offers a rich and savory flavor profile, combining the tenderness of duck meat with the crispy exterior and creamy filling familiar in a coxinha.
The dominant flavor comes from the slow-cooked duck meat, which is typically shredded and seasoned with aromatic herbs, spices, and often a touch of wine or stock for depth. This rich duck filling is then enveloped in a creamy, often cheesy, potato or cassava dough. The exterior is coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried to a golden crisp, providing a textural contrast and satisfying crunch. Some variations may include ingredients like bacon or olives to complement the duck.

Duck Preparation
Slow-cooking the duck until it is incredibly tender is crucial. Shred the meat finely and ensure it is well-seasoned.
Dough Consistency
The dough should be pliable and not too sticky. Adjust the amount of liquid in the recipe as needed.
Shaping Technique
Practice shaping the coxinha to ensure a consistent and visually appealing teardrop shape. Seal the dough completely to prevent filling leakage during frying.
Frying Temperature
Maintain a consistent oil temperature for even cooking and a crispy exterior.
