The story goes that the Portuguese farm owners would keep the best parts of pork for themselves and send the offcuts to the slave house to be added to a large vat of black beans… and voilá, Brazil’s national dish was creaed - The Feijoada. Reality may have been a bit different.
About
CucaBrazuca is a blog and podcast about Brazilian cooking and Brazilian food. The site is a labour of love of Brazilian designer Nando Cuca. Although our main focus is Brazilian food and drinks, it would be impossible to talk about Brazilian food without putting it into context by also touching on Brazilian Music, Cinema, Fashion and other arts. We welcome your opinion. Feel free to leave a comment. Enjoy.
