Portugal

Intro Portuguese Cuisine

The Portuguese cuisine is very rich in variety and flavours. Influenced by the colonial expeditions back in the 15th century to Africa, South East Asia and Brasil, Portugal brought back exotic cooking recipes, exotic products and a wide range of spices used in its cuisine up to the present days. As a result, flovours and ingredients also vary across the different regions of the country.

The geographical location of the country provides a great deal of fresh fish and seafood dishes. Meat dishes are mainly based on beef and pork meat.
