♦Ham bread

Ham bread is a bread stuffed with ham, stir-fried bacon (also called smoked bacon), raisins and green olives, usually stuffed with pepper or red paprika. It is a typical bread of Venezuela, which is part of the country's Christmas gastronomy. There are some variants in the ingredients, such as turkey ham and cream cheese among others and a variant has been created in the bread using puff pastry. This bread is a Venezuelan creation of the early twentieth century whose consumption and manufacture little by little became a Christmas custom until becoming essential every December.

♦ Ingredients for Ham Bread:
♦ 1 and 1/2 Kg of all-purpose wheat flour.

The golfeado is a sweet bread typical of the gastronomy of Venezuela, originally from the Capital Region of the country, especially from the area of ​​the High Mirandinos.

The dough is rolled with a shape similar to that of a snail so it resembles the famous cinnamon rolls, and in its folds is filled with a mixture of shredded paper and white cheese, flavored with anise in kind and baked.

They are usually accompanied by a slice of hand cheese, a type of salty and soft fresh cheese that is also typical of the country. For many Venezuelans, the ascent to Los Teques or Colonia Tovar, including a trip to Macuto, was synonymous with eating golfeados, because each of these roads stood out a must for their fame thanks to these sweets.
