Chili Salsa
These are often used in Brazil as dips/sauces for many dishes. Serving size is a guess since it depends on taste preference and how much you want it.
Brazilian Collard Greens
Recipe courtesy of Ben Silviera. I have not tried this yet but plan to soon! Prep time is an estimate.
Cheese Croquettes from Brazil (Croquettes De Queijo)
These are famous snacks in Brazil and are often served any time of day. They’re usually served with salsa.
Rabanada (Brazilian-Style French Toast)
This Brazilian breakfast treat is usually served around Christmastime. Being soaked overnight, it makes for a festive holiday brunch item. Cooking the toast long enough for the outside to get crispy still leaves it with a custard-like interior that melts in the mouth. This recipe comes from Chow, by Aïda Mollenkamp. I haven’t tried this recipe yet, but I may try it with less oil on a griddle, and although a topping is not mentioned in the recipe, I might use chocolate syrup and whipped cream. Pretty rich, but it is holiday fare after all. nt (not tried)
Dulce de Leche
It is a delicious carmel spread from Brazil. I got this from a friend who was an exchange student there, it is the most addicting thing ever, watch out, this is NOT low in fat…quite the contrary :)but soooo worth it.
