More Iberian Peninsula






The Cuisine of Portugal

Today we explored the flavors of one of the greatest seafaring cultures in history: Portugal.

Cuisine features seafood in many forms, as well as the pork sausage known as linguica.
Menu:
Portuguese Mussel Broth
Salt Cod Fritters
Salt Cod Salad
Camorones en Salsa Verde
Arroz Doce
Portuguese cuisine typically uses more herbs and spices than Spanish cuisine, based, I would surmise, on their long-term sea trade with spice producing nations to the East.
