Salgadinhos are small, usually savoury, fried appetizers that are a large
part of Brazil's before dinner rituals. They are frequently balls of fish,
cheese, or vegetables which are served with a variety of spicy sauces.
These cheese balls would be prepared from the wonderful white cheese that
comes from Minas Gerais in Brazil. Here a mixture of Parmesan and
Mozzarella is substituted.
Mix the cheeses together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Beat the egg
whites into stiff peaks in another large bowl; and add them to the cheese,
and fold in well. Form the mixture into balls and roll them in the flour.
Meanwhile, heat 4 or 5 inches of oil in a large heavy saucepan to 350 to
375^F over medium-high heat.
Drop in the cheese balls a few at a time and fry them until they are a
golden brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper
towels. Serve hot with cocktails.
