Casabe

Casabe

Casabe is a type of bread made from cassava, a starchy root vegetable native to South America. It is also known as cassava bread and is a staple food in many traditional diets of the Americas. Casabe has a unique texture, similar to that of a cracker, and it is naturally gluten-free. It is a good source of carbohydrates and fiber, and also contains small amounts of vitamins and minerals, such as calcium and iron. The bread is typically made by grating the cassava root, pressing out the liquid, and then baking the resulting dough on a hot griddle or in an oven. Casabe can be enjoyed plain or used as a base for other foods, such as sandwiches or dips.
