Catupiry (Portuguese pronunciation: ) is one of the most popular brands of requeijão (creamy dairy spread) in Brazil. It was developed by Italian immigrant Mario Silvestrini in the state of Minas Gerais in 1911. The name derives from the Tupi word meaning "excellent". Catupiry is a soft, mild-tasting "cheese" that can be spread over toasts, crackers and bread buns or used in cooking. Because of its low level of acidity, catupiry has become an ingredient in various dishes. Catupiry, as well as imitation cheeses, is a very common ingredient in Brazilian dishes, specially as a filling for pizzas, coxinhas or pães-de-queijo. More information...
