What it is
The cheese ring: chipa — small cheese breads of corn and cassava starch with queso Paraguay and anise, baked in tatakua clay ovens and sold everywhere (Holy Week makes tons of them). Ingredients: corn flour, cassava starch (almidón), queso Paraguay, eggs, milk, lard or butter, anise seeds, salt. Recipe: 1) Mix the flours and cheese into a dough. 2) Shape rings (chipa) or balls. 3) Bake hot until pale gold and puffed. 4) Serve warm with cocido (the Paraguayan mate drink). Serve: at chipa stalls, buses and Holy Week tables — the vendor's '¡chipa!' is the road's soundtrack. Flavor: cheesy, chewy, anise-kissed. History: chipa is Guaraní corn cooking in Spanish cheese — mestizaje you can hold. See also: Sopa Paraguaya, Mbejú.
