Escondidinho, meaning 'hidden,' has roots in simple, rustic Brazilian cooking, likely originating as a way to use leftover ingredients. Carne de Sol, a sun-dried and salted beef, has a long history in the semi-arid regions of Brazil, where preserving meat was essential. Macaxeira, also known as cassava or yuca, is a staple crop of indigenous origin. The combination of these ingredients reflects Brazil's rich culinary heritage, blending indigenous ingredients with preservation techniques from early settlers.

Preparing the Carne de Sol
Soaking the carne de sol is crucial to remove excess salt. Change the water several times during the soaking process. Taste the meat before cooking to ensure it's not too salty.
Macaxeira Purée Consistency
Achieving a smooth and creamy macaxeira purée is key. Boil the macaxeira until very tender, then mash thoroughly. Adding milk, butter, or cream can enhance the flavor and texture.
Layering
When assembling the escondidinho, ensure a generous layer of requeijão cremoso on top for a beautiful golden crust. You can also sprinkle grated cheese on top for extra flavor and browning.
Baking Temperature
Bake the escondidinho until heated through and the top is golden brown. Avoid overbaking, which can dry out the macaxeira purée.
