The one Brazilian food that I crave here above all others is quiejo coalho. It is a special kind of cheese treat that can come in a large block or on a skewer and is grilled to perfection. You put herbs and a unique molasses sauce here. The inside is grilled and a dark brown. The inside is off-white, warm and gooey. The best way that I can describe the cheese is a less dense mozzarella. It is very simple in taste but terrific with herbs and molasses. You can find men grilling cheese on the beach and in the streets with coals in a large tin can, even an empty paint can. Many restaurants also offer less sketchy, typhoid free options. This picture is with a huge block of quiejo coalho at a delicious seafood restaurant at the beach in Barra.
