Daily Interesting Cuisine 🥘 Brazilian Feijoada Today, let's explore a stew pot: one of Brazil's national dishes – Feijoada (black bean pot) and its side dishes! 🫘 Black Bean Pot: It is an iconic traditional Brazilian dish and is usually considered the national dish of Brazil. The main ingredients of this dish are black beans and various types of meat, including pork, beef, and sausages. The ingredients are rich, and the taste has rich layers. During the preparation of the black bean pot, spices such as 🧅 onions, garlic, and bay leaves are added. After long-time simmering, the flavors of the beans and meat are perfectly integrated, resulting in a rich and hearty flavor. 🐢 History: It originated during the 16th century Portuguese colonization. The original version might be a simplified form of the Portuguese 🇵🇹 bean stew dish "Feijoada à Transmontana". In Brazil, this dish has gone through many evolutions, absorbing the cooking skills and ingredients of African slaves and local indigenous people, and gradually developed into the form we are familiar with today. 🍱 Classic Side Dishes: The traditional accompaniments to the black bean pot include rice, 🍊 fresh orange slices, collard greens, toasted cassava flour (usually called farofa), and chili sauce. 🥔 Toasted cassava flour is made by stir-frying cassava flour in a pot with butter or oil. Sometimes, seasonings such as onions, garlic, 🥓 bacon, sausages, or eggs are added, and it is fried until golden and crispy. It has a strong flavor and can absorb the soup from the black bean pot, enhancing the overall taste experience. #Steaming #Food #Brazil #Brazilian #Black #Cassava #Traditional #Feijoada
