How To Make Pupusas de Queso

Imagine biting into a crisp exterior only to meet a soft, cheesy heart—yes, that’s a pupusa de queso for you. This culinary marvel hails from the rich landscapes of El Salvador and Honduras and has enamored taste buds for possibly two millennia.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup shredded Jack cheese
  • Oil for that perfect golden-brown cook

Instructions:

  • Prep Your Dough: Combine masa harina and salt in a mixing bowl. Introduce the hot water gradually, starting with 1 1/2 cups. Stir until you achieve a fluffy, moist dough. If it’s too dry, add more water. Let the dough rest for about 15 minutes under a cover.
