Tu receta para pan de yuca dice usar “queso fresco” pero no especifica que clase de “queso fresco”.
Me puedes indicar que clase usas? creo que hay unas 10-20 clases de queso fresco.
Erica says
Gary-Mexican queso fresco.
Gary Molina says
Erica,
Thank you sooooo much for your prompt response!!
(I have MORE questions though……)
When you finish making them…. do they end up “tostaditos” or “crujientes” como los de Carulla en Colombia??? OR “blanditos” como un “pan de bono”
Si terminan como “pan de bono”…. como hago para que queden de la otra forma???
1 MILLION de gracias por your time and paciencia!!
