About Bizcochos

Azalia presents croissant-shaped bizcochos as part of Uruguay's bakery tradition. This quince-filled rendition uses a yeast dough layered with a paste of pork lard and flour before being shaped into small rolled pastries.

Sugar lightly sweetens the dough, while dulce de membrillo supplies the fruit filling. Syrup is brushed over the pastries before and after baking, with sugar sprinkled on the finished surface.

The dough is rolled and cut into triangles, enclosing pieces of quince paste as it curls. Mate is among the source's suggested accompaniments.
