Brazilian

Feijoada is a traditional Brazilian stew, often considered the country's national dish. Its origins date back to the time of Portuguese colonization, when slaves would make the most of leftover pork parts. This hearty dish typically includes black beans, pork or beef, and a variety of smoked meats, such as bacon, sausage, and ribs. The feijoada is slowly cooked to perfection, allowing the flavors to meld together. In Brazil, it's commonly served with rice, collard greens, and orange slices. Some renowned restaurants in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo are known for their exceptional feijoada, offering a rich and flavorful experience for locals and tourists alike.
