Portuguese Papas Recipe

This Portuguese papas recipe is so easy to make and it's so delicious.

Portuguese papas are a type of traditional porridge-like dish that is popular in certain regions of Portugal. There are several different varieties of papas, but they are generally made by cooking a starchy ingredient, such as cornmeal or wheat, in water or milk until it becomes thick and creamy.

One popular type of Portuguese papas is called "papas de milho," which is made with cornmeal and often served with a savory stew or meat dish. Another type is "papas de sarrabulho," which is made with wheat flour and pig's blood and typically eaten as a main course.

Papas are often considered a comfort food in Portugal, and they are frequently served during festivals and other special occasions. They are also sometimes served as a breakfast dish or as a dessert, depending on the type of papas and the region in which they are prepared.

Overall, Portuguese papas are a flavorful and hearty dish that is an important part of the country's culinary heritage.

Only the yolk Trudi, I would never use the white for this. Store the white in the fridge and then use it later on when you use eggs for something else.
