The dish reflects Brazil's culinary history, combining indigenous ingredients like potatoes with preserved meats influenced by colonization and 'Catupiry' cheese, a uniquely Brazilian creation. The preservation of meat, namely 'carne seca', has its roots in a time when refrigeration was not readily available, so sun-drying meat was a necessity. The dish has evolved over time and is now a popular pub-food.

Potato Selection
Choose large, starchy potatoes like Russet potatoes for a fluffy and flavorful base.
Carne Seca Preparation
Soak the dried meat for several hours or overnight to remove excess salt before shredding and cooking. Some prefer boiling it while others may prefer to use a pressure cooker.
Catupiry Quality
Use authentic Catupiry cheese for the best flavor and creamy texture. If unavailable, a similar creamy cheese can be substituted but it won't be exactly the same.
Baking time
Bake the potatoes until they are soft to the touch, usually between one hour and one hour and a half depending on the oven and potato size.
Seasoning the Potatoes
Before stuffing, be sure to season the inside of the potato with salt, pepper, and any other spices you like.
