Yoki Seasoned Cassava Crumbs (Farofa Traditional 400g)

Product Overview

• Taste Profile: Savory and salty with a mild nutty undertone from the toasted cassava. It features a rich "umami" kick from garlic, onion, and a hint of pepper.
• Texture: Distinctly crunchy and grainy, similar to a coarse breadcrumb but with more "bite."
• Convenience: Unlike raw cassava flour, this "Farofa Pronta" (Ready Farofa) is already toasted and seasoned, saving the cook 15–20 minutes of preparation time.

Key Ingredients

• Base: Cassava flour (Farinha de mandioca).
• Seasoning: Garlic, onion, red pepper, black pepper, and chives.
• Colouring: Natural annatto (urucum) which gives it a golden-orange hue.
• Fats: Vegetable oils (usually palm or soy) used to toast the flour and carry the flavours.

How to Use (Serving Suggestions)

1. The "Churrasco" Essential: It is the mandatory companion for Brazilian BBQ. Guests dip their grilled meat (like Picanha) directly into the farofa to add crunch and soak up the meat juices.
2. The Feijoada Partner: Sprinkled liberally over black bean stew (Feijoada) and rice to add texture and help balance the richness of the stew.
3. The Daily Topping: Many Brazilians use it as a daily "salt and pepper" style topping for their standard plate of rice and beans.
4. Baking/Stuffing: Can be used as a gluten-free stuffing for roast chicken or turkey, or as a crunchy topping for baked fish.
