Salgados offer a diverse range of flavors, primarily savory and often rich, depending on the filling and preparation method. Common flavors include chicken, beef, cheese, hearts of palm, and shrimp, seasoned with herbs, spices, and occasionally creamy sauces.
The flavor profiles are determined by the filling. Coxinhas boast a creamy, shredded chicken filling seasoned with herbs and spices. Pastéis offer versatility, with fillings ranging from ground beef and cheese to hearts of palm and shrimp. Empadas present a buttery crust surrounding a savory filling, often chicken, shrimp, or hearts of palm, in a creamy sauce. Frying, a common method, adds a crispy texture and enhances the savory flavors. Aromatic herbs and spices like parsley, oregano, and garlic are commonly used to enhance the fillings.

Dough Consistency
Ensure the dough for pastéis and empadas is neither too sticky nor too dry. A good dough should be easy to handle and roll out.
Filling Moisture
Avoid overly wet fillings to prevent the salgados from becoming soggy during frying or baking. Drain excess moisture from ingredients like shredded chicken or hearts of palm before using.
Frying Temperature
Maintain a consistent frying temperature (around 180°C or 350°F) to ensure the salgados cook evenly and develop a crispy golden-brown crust.
Serving Temperature
Salgados are best enjoyed warm, allowing the flavors of the filling to be fully appreciated.
