Cooking Instructions:
1) Thaw the product completely before starting fermentation. Do not start fermentation while the product is still frozen inside. 2) Then, place it in a fermentation chamber under the following conditions: 30-35 ºC temperature, 70-75% relative humidity, for approximately 45 minutes. This time is merely indicative; you should monitor the product's development during fermentation to determine the final stage of fermentation.
3) If you do not have a chamber, you can alternatively use a conventional oven that is turned off: (1) Place the completely thawed Bolo Rei inside the oven; (2) Keep the oven off and only the internal light on; (3) Place a bowl or container with very hot, but not boiling, water inside; (4) Close the oven door and let it ferment;
4) Then bake in a preheated oven for 25 minutes at 215 °C. The cooking time and temperature should always be adjusted to the type of oven.
