broinha de milho.

I've started rowing in Lagoa, and I've also started a (somewhat) dangerous habit of buying a few (ok, three) broinhas de milho and a suco (I've been slacking on trying all the juices, so I've incorporated it into my breakfast). Broinhas de milho (or broa de milho) are these little breads that look like muffin tops. They're made with corn, and flecked with fennel seeds. The best ones are a bit sweet, and not too oily. I've found that the bakery on Vincius de Morais and Visconde de Piraja makes them best (of the ones I've tried so far). They're a little crunchy, a little soft, a little warm. Mega Matte also makes them pretty well, but they can be oily, so I try not to get them from there too often.
