This Brazilian shrimp recipe sounds delicious. I’m going to have guests and I was looking for something different – I guess I found it.

Thanks,

I lived in Bahia for nearly two years and I could not get enough of the authentic dishes such as moqueca de camarao, acaraje with dried shrimp, vatapa and pimenta, the wonderful green corn sorvete (very short season), xin xin de galhinha and the occasional vitamina made with sweetened avacado and bananas…..boy do I miss Bahia!!!

You missed a basic ingredient: Azeite de Dendê!!!! By the way, when I still lived in Brazil nobody referred to Bobó de Camarão (that my mother made wonferfuly) as an “Afro-Brazilian” dish… I see that the politically correct police has gotten to Brazil too. Pity.

Thank you for the lovely recipe.I always wanted to know how to make a good “Bobó de Camarão”,and a Guava dessert.Now I feel more confident to try, next time we have guests.I will pass your email to my Brazilian friends as well.
PS-Just one question:For the Souffle,the oven starts at 125C and then 180C,for 15 minutes?
