El Leaf of Chaves It is a typical bread of the Portuguese gastronomy. Folar is very typical of the Portuguese city of Keys, located in the Vila Real District, North Region and Alto Trás-os-Montes sub-region.
It is an ancestral food made with alchemical mixtures of water, salt, eggs and wheat flour. The form, the content and the secret of its elaboration is maintained in different ways throughout the entire territory of Portugal and ranges from a salty bread to a sweet bun, always with very different shapes.
Sometimes it is filled with salpicão or linguiça or with a hard-boiled egg. You should know that bread is one of the basic elements of Portuguese cuisine. Production is limited to the use of wheat flour, but it is common for corn (northern Portugal).
Bread is part of very traditional dishes such as the root and the Sausauge the Alentejo and the Torrico. Among the best known Allende breads find the Dadu wheat. Other breads are Fogaça, Bentley's «caralhotas» (which are round and medium-sized breads, especially when they are fresh out of the appreciated oven), «bread-with-sausage» (similar to Asturian preñaos if consumed in Holidays and the cinema have a sausage inside), the folares (typical of Easter) and so on.
In the north of Portugal, the menudo refers to the «ball» («balls») which are loaves with minced meat inside (in Tras-os-Montes) and the compact round bread sardines served with the meat (as if can be found in some parts of Minho humans).
