Brazilian Cookbooks
What are some good recipes from Brazil?
My grandmother was from Brazil and my father remembers his cooking a big meal when I was little. But then divorced and remarried to a meat and potatoes all-American type, ethnic and never cooked anything again. Furthermore, we can not find any of their prescriptions written on paper or in cookbooks. Does anyone know some good recipes that do not require too many ingredients that may not have in my pantry? I do not mind buying some new things in the grocery store, but do not want this to be too difficult.
Couve-flor gratin (Baked Cauliflower) Ingredients: 1 medium cauliflower 4 tablespoons butter or margarine (I use Olivio, is healthier) 100g grated Parmesan cheese 6 tablespoons of broth in which the cooked cauliflower 1 teaspoon coffee ground nutmeg 1 (shallow) dessert spoon cornstarch 4 tablespoons plain bread crumbs Method: Wash the cauliflower, remove the small "trees" and cut the stems that are too long. Boil in water (water over cauliflower:) for approx. 7 min. Separate 6 tablespoons cream and broth to drain the remaining water. Get a baking dish, such as Pyrex, and place the cauliflower in it. Now we will make the cream. Mix all remaining ingredients, but separated by the bread crumbs (do not use it yet). Cover the cauliflower with this and with the fingertips, gently sprinkle the bread crumbs, spreading it all over the cauliflower. Put it in the oven to 400 degrees F for 10 minutes at gratinate. After this, ready to be served, enjoy! I made this recipe again last week, my husband is American and loves it! You can also cook the cauliflower (without cream, at first) in the microwave, high power 6 to 8 minutes, and wait 3 to cool. But I prefer to boil. This recipe is a side dish, and serve 6 to 8 servings. Just a note here for you. We bacalhoada (cod) in Brazil, but is a recipe of Portugal (where they have a lot of cod). Our cuisine actually has a lot of influence from France, Portugal and Italy, but there are many dishes that originated in Brazil.
