Feijoada is one of the most traditional and historic dishes in Portuguese cuisine. It combines many of the great flavors and ingredients our cuisine has to offer and turns them into a wonderfully delicious mix. It has everything, beans, rice, and delicious meats, and is a hearty and is in our opinion the most awesome way to enjoy Portuguese cuisine. This dish is so delicious and tasty that is has influenced Brazilian cuisine and become the Brazilian national dish of choice. This recipe comes from our fellow Portuguese compatriot Emeril Lagasse over at the Food Network. The recipe is a bit more difficult than the rest of our very simple dishes, but the effort is totally worth the deliciousness at the end, I guaruntee you’ll love it.
