« English:
Portugal’s cuisine is a delightful reflection of its rich history, coastal geography, and love for simple yet bold flavors. From the world-famous bacalhau (salted codfish) prepared in countless delicious ways, to the comforting caldo verdesoup, each dish tells a story of tradition and warmth. Seafood is a star in Portuguese cooking, especially in dishes like grilled sardines and arroz de marisco (seafood rice). And no meal is complete without a sweet ending—pastéis de nata, the iconic custard tarts, are a must-try treat. Portuguese food is soulful, hearty, and full of character.
Português:
gastronomia portuguesa é um reflexo encantador da sua rica história, da sua geografia costeira e do amor por sabores simples, mas intensos. Do mundialmente famoso bacalhau, preparado de inúmeras maneiras deliciosas, à reconfortante sopa de caldo verde, cada prato conta uma história de tradição e aconchego. O marisco é protagonista na culinária portuguesa, especialmente em pratos como as sardinhas assadas e o arroz de marisco. E nenhuma refeição está completa sem uma doçura no final — os pastéis de nata, as icónicas tartes de nata, são uma verdadeira tentação. A comida portuguesa é autêntica, acolhedora e cheia de alma.»
