Salgados' history is intertwined with the European influence on Brazilian cuisine, particularly Portuguese culinary traditions. Many of the techniques and doughs used in salgados are derived from or inspired by European pastries and savory snacks. The accessibility and versatility of these snacks contributed to their widespread popularity across different social classes.

Salgados hold significant cultural importance in Brazil, acting as popular snacks for parties, gatherings, and everyday meals. They are ubiquitous at celebrations and are considered a staple of Brazilian snack culture.
Party Staple
Salgados are essential at Brazilian birthday parties, weddings, and other celebrations. A 'festa infantil' (children's party) is simply incomplete without a platter piled high with various salgados.
Street Food and Lanchonetes
Salgados are readily available as street food, often sold from small carts or kiosks. They are also a common offering in 'lanchonetes' (snack bars), providing a quick and affordable meal or snack option.
Social Gatherings
Whether it's a casual get-together with friends or a family reunion, salgados are often served alongside drinks, facilitating social interaction and creating a relaxed atmosphere.

Salgados offer a diverse range of savory flavors, primarily influenced by the fillings and seasonings used. Common flavors include chicken, cheese, beef, shrimp, and various vegetable combinations. Herbs, spices, and cheeses add depth and complexity.
The dominant flavors in salgados depend greatly on the filling. Coxinha delivers a creamy, savory chicken flavor, often with a hint of paprika or other spices. Risoles showcase a cheesy or meaty taste, while bolinhas de queijo offer a pure, cheesy indulgence. Empadas feature a variety of savory fillings, from chicken to hearts of palm. The dough provides a neutral base that complements the filling's flavor profile.

Dough Consistency
Ensure the dough is pliable but not too sticky. Overworking the dough can result in a tough texture. Resting the dough allows the gluten to relax, resulting in a more tender crust.
Frying Temperature
Maintain the oil temperature at around 350-375°F (175-190°C) for optimal frying. Frying at too low a temperature will result in soggy salgados, while too high a temperature can burn the exterior before the interior is cooked.
Breadcrumb Coating
Use fine breadcrumbs for a delicate coating and coarser breadcrumbs for a crispier texture. Dip the salgados in egg wash before coating them in breadcrumbs to ensure proper adhesion.
Filling Moisture
Make sure the filling is not too watery. Excess moisture can cause the dough to become soggy and the salgados to burst during frying. Simmer the filling until thickened before assembling.
