INGREDIENTS
1 kg. Tapioca Starch (Yuca Starch)
300 gr Quaker yellow cornmeal
300 gr. Butter or lard, room temperature
8 large eggs, room temperature
3 teaspoons kosher salt (to taste)
300 ml (about 1-⅓ cups) buttermilk or whole milk, room temperature
800 gr. Shredded Mexican Cheese or Queso Panela Basket such as El Viajero or Queso de Freir "Fresh white Cheese for frying" such as Tropical Brand, crumbled
15 gr. ( 2 tablespoons) Anise seeds (to taste)
1 tablespoon Baking powder * (Secret ingredient for making a little lighter and more airy Chipa)
HOW TO MAKE CHIPA
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C). Line (2) 13x18x1 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mixing the Dry Ingredients: In an extra-large mixing bowl, combine the yuca starch, cornmeal, salt, and baking powder. Rub 15 grams (2 tablespoons) of anise seeds in the palms of your hands until they become fragrant. Add them to the dry mixture and stir to distribute them evenly. Set this mixture aside. (The anise seeds are optional but add a distinctive flavor).
Preparing the Dough: Place the yuca starch mixture onto a clean work surface. Make a well in the center of the yuca starch mixture. Add the softened butter and eggs into the well. Use your fingers to mix the eggs and butter until they're somewhat combined and creamy.
Incorporating Dry Ingredients: Using your hand, slowly incorporate the dry mixture into the wet mixture and mix until a crumbly dough forms.👀👉The mixture should appear loose but hold together when pressed.
Add Cheese: Mix the cheese until it's well integrated.
Adding Liquid Ingredients: Add buttermilk to the mixture, adding just enough to prevent it from becoming too firm and to make it easy to knead. Continue mixing with your hands until a compact and moist (but not too moist) dough forms. Once the mixture becomes homogeneous, you can begin kneading.
Kneading the Dough: Use the heel of your hand to push the dough away from you on the work surface. After smearing the dough, gather it back with a bench scraper. Continue kneading until the dough becomes smooth and compact and easily detaches from the work surface and your hands, about 4 to 5 minutes. When done, the dough should have a smooth playdough-like consistency.
Resting the Dough: Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for at least 15 to 20 minutes for better results. This resting period allows the dough to relax and improves the final texture of your Chipa Almidon.
Shape the Chipa Mestizo: For a circular shape (Chipa Argolla), take a handful of dough, form it into a ball (about 130g each), and roll it into an 8-inch log. Then, join the ends to form a circle and gently press to seal.
For a diagonal shape, take a handful of dough, form a ball, roll it into a 9-inch long and 2-inch diameter log, and cut it into 3-inch diagonal slices. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
Baking: Place the shaped Chipa Mestizo on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until they are lightly golden, puffed up, and have cheese spots on the surface, about 12-15 minutes. Be careful not to overcook them. Chipa is best served fresh out of the oven.
📌Camila's Tips: Since the recipe is gluten-free, there's no risk of over-kneading. Just make sure to mix the ingredients thoroughly for even distribution, which helps make the chipas lighter.
