Specification (summary of requirements under Article 4(2)) 4.1 Name: ‘LINGUÍÇA DO BAIXO ALENTEJO or CHOURIÇO DE CARNE DO BAIXO ALENTEJO’ (1) European Commission, Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural Development, Agricultural Product Quality Policy, B-1049 Brussels. 7.6.2006 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 132/37 4.2 Description: lightly oak-smoked sausage, made from the meat and hard fats obtained from cuts of meat from the carcasses of the Alentejano breed of pig. Salt, ground pepper, crushed dried garlic, white wine produced in the region, caraway, paprika and pepper are added to the pieces of meat and fat. The casing used is naturally salted hog casing. The sausage, which is shaped like a horseshoe, is 30 cm in length and is between 3 and 4,5 cm in diameter. It is shiny, slightly rough, and is red in colour with white specks. It has a slightly firm to firm consistency. It is tightened by twisting it, and tied with cotton twine at both ends. When the sausage is cut, the meat is non-uniform in colour, being red with white specks. The stuffing is quite solid in consistency, with a random distribution of meat and fat in an irregular, marble-like pattern. The fat is pearly, shiny, aromatic, and has a pleasant taste. The sausage has a pleasant, mild and delicate, lightly salted and sometimes slightly spicy taste. It has a pleasant, slightly smoky aroma. 4.3 Geographical area: The geographical production area for raw materials which are used in the preparation of the Linguiça or Chouriço de Carne do Baixo Alentejo is limited to the municipalities of Abrantes, Alandroal, Alcácer do Sal (except the freguesia of Santa Maria do Castelo), Alcoutim, Aljezur (the freguesias of Odeceixe, Bordeira, Rogil and Aljezur), Aljustrel, Almodôvar, Alter do Chão, Alvito, Arraiolos, Arronches, Avis, Barrancos, Beja, Borba, Campo Maior, Castelo Branco, Castelo de Vide, Castro Marim (the freguesias of Odeleite and Azinhal), Castro Verde, Chamusca, Coruche, Crato, Cuba, Elvas (except the freguesia of Caia and S. Pedro), Estremoz, Évora, Ferreira do Alentejo, Fronteira, Gavião, Grândola (except the freguesia of Melides), Idanha-a-Nova, Lagos (the freguesia of Bensafrim), Loulé (the freguesias of Ameixial, Salir, Alte, Benafim and Querença), Marvão. Mértola, Monchique (the freguesias of Monchique, Marmelete and Alferce), Monforte, Montemor-o-Novo, Mora, Moura, Mourão, Nisa, Odemira (except the freguesias of Vila Nova de Mil Fontes and S. Teotónio), Ourique, Penamacor, Ponte de Sôr, Portalegre, Portel, Redondo, Reguengos de Monsaraz, Sabugal, Santiago do Cacém (except the freguesia of Santo André), Sardoal, São Brás de Alportel, Serpa, Sines, Silves (the freguesias of S. Marcos, S. Bartolomeu de Messines and Silves) Sousel, Tavira, (the freguesia of Cachopo), Vendas Novas, Viana do Alentejo, Vidigueira, Vila Velha de Ródão and Vila Viçosa, where the Montado agri- silvi-pastoral systems are located. Given the particular weather conditions, the local production methods employed and the product's organoleptic characteristics, the geographical area where the sausage is processed, matured, cut and packaged is confined to the municipalities of Aljustrel, Beja, Castro Verde, Cuba, Ferreira do Alentejo, Mértola, Moura, Serpa, Vidigueira, the district of Beja and Alcoutim, the district of Faro, and the freguesias of Cachopo in the municipality of Tavira and Odeleite, and Azinhal in the municipality of Castro Marim, in the district of Faro. 4.4Proofoforigin:Linguiça do Baixo Alentejo or Chouriço de Carne do Baixo Alentejo may only be produced in duly licensed processing plants, located in the geographical area where the sausage is processed and authorised by the Group. The raw material comes from Alentejano pigs on livestock farms with oak groves compatible with extensive or semi-extensive farming systems, as the animals are usually reared outdoors. The animals are registered as Alentejano pigs in the herd-book. The pigs are slaughtered, and the meat cut in licensed plants within the geographical area where the sausage is processed. Agricultural farms, slaughterhouses, cutting plants and production plants of Linguiça do Baixo Alentejo or Chouriço de Carne do Baixo Alentejo are duly registered in the Group, and are subject to independent control. This system allows full traceability of the product, enabling random checks to be carried out to determine the product's origin, from the agricultural farm to each piece sold. Each piece must always bear a numbered certification mark. 4.5 Method of production: Obtained from cuts of meat from the leg, loin, belly and scrag and off- cuts and fat from Alentejano pigs (Sus ibericus) which are minced either mechanically or manually. The proportion of lean meat content must be 70-80 % and the proportion of fat content must be 20- 30 %. Once the meat has been minced, it is mixed in a container with the fat and seasoning, which has been previously diluted in water, which is a typical characteristic of this region. The mass is left for 1 to 2 days in a refrigeration room where the temperature does not exceed 10o C and the humidity level is approximately 80/90 %. The mixture is then put into the hog casings which have been preserved in brine, ensuring that the sausages are tightly filled and tied. Once the sausages have been stuffed they are smoked. This process, which lasts a minimum of 3 days and a maximum of 10 days according to the environmental conditions (3 to 4 days in summer and 5 to 6 days in winter), is carried out in the smokehouse, and the sausages are smoked either over oak wood or dry cork-oak. The sausage is placed on the market as a whole sausage, or in pieces or slices, and is always pre- packed at the place of origin. Special material, which is innocuous and inert when it comes into contact with the product, is used for its packaging. The product may be packed in a normal or controlled atmosphere or in a vacuum. Cutting and packing can only be carried out in the geogra- phical processing area so as to ensure traceability and control and to prevent any change to the product's organoleptic characteristics, and to ensure traceability at every stage in the process. C 132/38EN Official Journal of the European Union 7.6.2006 4.6 Link: Human consumption of pork meat has been found in remains in the Baixo Alentejo region dating back to the Bronze Age, principally next to dolmens and other megalithic monuments. The consumption of this meat is also reported in the region in the 4th century B.C., during the period of Celtic rule. These peoples made an important contribution to the diversification of the eating habits of the Baixo Alentejo region. Later, the consumption of pork meat increased following the Roman tradition, when the region was ruled by the Romans. These colonisers encountered innovative culinary techniques: the pigs were fed acorns and local aromatic plants were used in the production of food. The first millennium A.D. is marked by the arrival of Muslim invaders. However, the rules of the Koran did not have any influence on local customs. The main legacy of this period is the use of spices in local cooking. Throughout the ages there are numerous references to pigs being fed acorns from oak groves. This was the most frequently consumed type of meat in the region, either fresh or preserved. The animals lived in extensive farms, and sometimes in community pigsties called ‘adúas’, which until recently could still be found in the Alentejo region. Thus, pork has always had a unique place in Alentejo regional cuisine, from ancient times up to the present day. The art of sausage making, of which the Linguiça do Baixo Alentejo or Chouriço de Carne do Baixo Alentejo is an important product, developed as a result of the need to preserve pork meat throughout the year. In conclusion, 3 basic elements link the Linguiça do Baixo Alentejo or Chouriço de Carne do Baixo Alentejo to the region: the meat used comes from a breed of animal peculiar to the region; this animal is reared on oak groves in the region; the meat has a specific flavour, with seasoning and sensory characteristics and a unique appearance which differs from other sausage meat products from the Alentejo region.

  • El Poeta Miguel Hernández En La Raya Dejamos Atrás El País Del
    El poeta Miguel Hernández en la Raya Dejamos atrás el País del Mago y nos adentramos de nuevo en El País de al Lado. Nos dirigimos a Serpa, la población portuguesa más importante de esta zona portuguesa de la Raya. En Serpa, empieza una historia contradictoria y variopinta, que tiene como telón de fondo la Guerra Civil española. En la frontera con el norte de Huelva y con Badajoz, los republicanos que huían de la represión del ejército de Franco encontraron diferente suerte. Resumiendo: si cruzaban a Barrancos, unos kilómetros más arriba de donde nos encontramos, salvaban sus vidas; si cruzaban a Serpa, Campo Maior u otros pueblos portugueses, lo normal es que fueran devueltos a España, donde acababan ante un pelotón de fusilamiento. El caso más conocido y emblemático de esta suerte dispar es el del poeta Miguel Hernández, que no cruzó a Portugal desde Paymogo, pues ya sabemos que el puente sobre el Chanza se levantó en 2012, sino por la raya seca, en concreto, por el paso fronterizo más meridional entre España y Portugal: el que unía Rosal de la Frontera con Serpa a través de Vila Verde de Ficalho y Vila Nova de São Bento. En abril de 1939, acabada la Guerra Civil, el poeta Miguel Hernández, que acaba de tener su segundo hijo, Manuel Miguel, y componer su último libro, “El hombre acecha”, intenta escapar de la represión del régimen de Franco. Pretende refugiarse en la Embajada de Chile, pero fracasa en su intento de que el diplomático chileno Carlos Morla, contertulio de los poetas del 27, le facilite asilo y debe escapar de Madrid.

The landscape mingles with the vines and cereal crops – an ever-changing canvas of colour: intensely green towards the end of winter, the colour of straw at the end of spring, and deep ochre during the final months of summer. 1 All over the Alentejo there are archaeological markers suggesting that wine has Historybeen an important part of life up to the present day. Whilst it is not known exactly when wine and viticulture was introduced to the Alentejo, there is plenty of evidence that they were already part of the day-to-day life in the Alentejo by the time the Romans arrived in the south of Portugal. It is thought that the Tartessians, an ancient civilisation based in the south of the Iberian Peninsula and heirs of the Andalusian Megalithic culture, were the first to domesticate vineyards and introduce winemaking principles in the Alentejo.

Por todo o país existem monumentos expectantes à espera da sua revalorização. Com características específicas e próprias da representação de uma época, torna-se fundamental preservar este tipo de património para o conhecimento da identidade de cada povo e região. A nossa investigação, confinada ao concelho de Aljezur, pretenderá chegar justamente ao objetivo deste trabalho, contribuindo com um raciocínio diferenciado sobre este tema que ainda não sentiu, de forma satisfatória e completa, uma reflexão coerente. Pretendemos demonstrar a conciliação do valor patrimonial existente com a necessidade de preservar e salvaguardar este testemunho histórico, capaz de revelar a nossa identidade e fazer com que a nossa herança cultural seja um dos pilares para o nosso conhecimento. O desenvolvimento do estudo em questão irá permitir pôr em relevo a dimensão histórica, eclesiástica, artística e religiosa no Concelho de Aljezur e, por outro lado, a forma como este tipo de património se encontra valorizado.

Le spiagge e le calette, dominate da falesie scoscese, ti offriranno vedute paradisiache, ma l'odore dell'oceano si intreccerà con gli aromi del timo e dell'eucalipto, in una grande varietà di flora e fauna mediterranea. Il nostro itinerario eviterà la costa sud, più turistica, per concentrarsi sulla meno conosciuta costa occidentale: camminerai verso sud, immergendoti nel Parco Naturale del "Sudoeste Alentejano de Costa Vicentina", in un paesaggio che varia dalle dune di sabbia e le scogliere rocciose della costa a boschi mediterranei e sentieri costellati di cespugli d'erica. Non mancheranno le occasioni di calarsi nello stile di vita portoghese, un inno a godersi la vita: dai bagni nell'oceano ai gustosi piatti di pesce fresco, accompagnati dal buon vino bianco locale. I consigli di SloWays: Segui le orme dei pellegrini sulla Rota Vicentina, lungo una delle coste meglio preservate d'Europa; Cammina circondato da un paesaggio meraviglioso, tra fari sul mare e cale rocciose dove nidificano le cicogne; Immergiti tra le onde della spiaggia di Bordeira a Carrapateira, un vero paradiso per i surfisti; Parla con gli abitanti locali in un bar di paese sorseggiando un caffè freddo.

    BARLAVENTO BARLAVENTO Região de Turismo do Algarve SAGRES TOUR SAGRES SAGRES TOUR SAGRES The Algarve is the most westerly part of mainland Europe, the last harbouring place before entering the waters of the Atlantic, a region where cultures have mingled since time immemorial. Rotas & Caminhos do Algarve (Routes and Tours of the Algarve) aims to provide visitors with information to help them plan a stay full of powerful emotions, a passport to adventure, in which the magic of nature, excellent hospitality, the grandeur of the Algarve’s cultural heritage, but also those luxurious and cosmopolitan touches all come together. These will be tours which will lure you into different kinds of activity and adventure, on a challenge of discovery. The hundreds of beaches in the Algarve seduce people with their white sands and Atlantic waters, which sometimes surge in sheets of spray and sometimes break on the beaches in warm waves. These are places to relax during lively family holidays, places for high-energy sporting activity, or for quiet contemplation of romantic sunsets. Inland, there is unexplored countryside, with huge areas of nature reserves, where you can follow the majestic flight of eagles or the smooth gliding of the storks. Things that are always mentioned about the people of the Algarve are their hospitality and their prowess as story-tellers, that they are always ready to share experiences, and are open to CREDITS change and diversity.
