Brazilian cuisine, just like the Brazilian people, is the result of a rich blend of cultures. A unique combination of Portuguese and African dishes with local ingredients that for centuries before the arrival of Europeans had been part of the Indian meals.
But more than the ingredients or recipes, it's the way foods are prepared that makes Brazilian cuisine so great. The use of marinades, for example, is common, and frequently succulent flavors are sealed into foods by first sauteing them judiciously in onions, tomatoes, peppers, garlic, herbs, and other seasonings.
All recipes in this book include ingredients available in most Northern Hemisphere countries, and are given in terms of present-day measures. With this book by Margaette de Andrade, anyone with a slight familiarity with the oven will immediately become a master in one of the most varied and creative cuisines in the world.
