Portuguese Roll

A Portuguese roll, also known as Papo Seco, is a staple in Portuguese cuisine, beloved for its unique combination of a firm crust and a soft, airy interior. This slightly sweet roll is made from a straightforward yeast dough and often showcases an attractive split-top design that's both appealing and practical, aiding in sandwich construction. Whether enjoyed as is with a slather of butter, or stuffed with meat for a hearty sandwich, these rolls are versatile and flavorful. Portuguese rolls are also perfect for sopping up rich sauces from stews, ensuring not a drop of deliciousness is wasted.
