Portuguese culture

[fyure]

In my town we have as a traditional dish roasted lamb (cabrito assado). It is served with potatoes and sautéed greens - I used google translator for this, the portuguese name is 'grelos salteados'. 'Grelo' also could mean cunt. Portuguese language is tricky

[brankinho_gaspar]

I love sautéed cunts.

I love sautéed cunts.

But you love sausage too...

Stone soup?? 

Yup. Sopa da pedra, the portuguese name. It is a soup made manly of meat, pork meat, chorizo (chouriço), pudding (morcela, negra, farinheira), and some other things like potatoes and red beans. It is the traditional dish of Almeirim, in the province of Ribatejo. I'm from another city from this pronvince and we eat it some times too.



The name cames frome a legend. It is said that the recipe was given by a friar who carried a stone on his bad. Every time he had to eat during his pilgrimage, he asked people to let him go inside their homes and prepare a soup mad of the stone he had. Then he asked for other condiments and the soup would be done. The stone, it self, was only an excuse to people let him try to make that soup. How can he make a soup out of a stone ? Well, i fact he couldn't, it was only a way to provide him the necessary to make a really good soup.

People still usually put a stone on the pan, or in the terrine were the soup is served.

Isn't it mad to put a stone in there/ For the teeth etc?

It is a big stone. There's no chance to eat it. It is just to create an apresentation of the dish.

Sundays? Time to eat cozido à portuguesa and listen to the heart and soul of Portugal, Carlos Paredes and his Portuguese Guitar (in fact, he played a Coimbra Guitar, wich is similar but has some light differences in sonority).

Paredes is a true legend, the best ever, by far.

You just reminded me, in Brazil there is an amazing pizza variation that i usually order called the portuguesa,



In Minas Gerias, they also add catupiry  sometimes... and that is a fucking good pizza.

Is that breaded cod fish on the left?

[brankinho_gaspar]

I need the help of google translate on this one.

On the left is breaded pork. Those 4 smaller things are called codfish cakes. I assume that's what you called breaded cod fish 
Fresch cheese, morcela, hake fillets.
But the best is this:


That rice is too die for.
