I've just arrived from Porto- Portugal! What a gastronomically diverse country!
I've tried many delicious food in my Friends' wedding ( Jorge and Chris)
and of course many typical delicacies!!!in Aveiro and Porto.
Bacalhau (Salted Cod fish), "Francesinhas"Typical sandwich from Porto city made with layers of bread,beef,pork sausage,cheese and a special "secret sauce"nobody will tell you the recipe,(i've asked) I guess there is some sea food reduced broth with loads of chili and cognac. Tripas (Porto specialty), loads of Squid! I love then!!! my favorite squid was in Aveiro, simple and delicious! and many, egg based sweets as: pastel de nata, ovos moles (Aveiro), Doce de Chila,this vegetable belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family which includes the cucumbers, melons, squashes, and pumpkins.
I wish i could stay longer to explore more...
So many dishes, so little time...
