    Menu Feijoada Pao de Quejo Moqueqa de Peixe Rice Brigadeiros (dessert) Guarana (beverage) Glossary Brigadeiros: A simple Brazilian chocolate candy, created in the 1940s and named after Brigadier Eduardo Gomes, whose shape is reminiscent of that of some varieties of chocolate truffles. It is a popular candy in Brazil and it is usually served at birthday parties. Gomes was Brazilian Air Force Brigadier. Later he ran unsuccessfully for the presidency in 1946 and 1950. This was a time of shortage of traditional imports such as nuts and fruits because of the war. But, at the same time, Nestle was introducing its brand of chocolate powder and condensed milk into the country. Churrasco: In Brazil, churrasco is the term for a barbecue (similar to the Argentine, Uruguayan, Paraguayan and Chilean asado) which originated in southern Brazil. Brazilian churrasco contains a variety of meats which may be cooked on a purpose-built "churrasqueira", a grill or barbecue, often with supports for spits or skewers. Portable "churrasqueiras" are similar to those used to prepare the Argentine, Paraguayan and Uruguayan asado, with a grill support, but many Brazilian "churrasqueiras" do not have grills, only the skewers above the embers. The meat may alternatively be cooked on large metal or wood skewers resting on a support or stuck into the ground and roasted with the embers of charcoal (wood may also be used, especially in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. Dende oil : Used in Brazilian and West African cooking palm or dende oil is made from the kernel of the palm fruit. The oil is thick and red-orange in color with a nutty flavor and high in saturated fat.

  • The Gradual Loss of African Indigenous Vegetables in Tropical America: a Review
    The Gradual Loss of African Indigenous Vegetables in Tropical America: A Review 1 ,2 INA VANDEBROEK AND ROBERT VOEKS* 1The New York Botanical Garden, Institute of Economic Botany, 2900 Southern Boulevard, The Bronx, NY 10458, USA 2Department of Geography & the Environment, California State University—Fullerton, 800 N. State College Blvd., Fullerton, CA 92832, USA *Corresponding author; e-mail: [email protected] Leaf vegetables and other edible greens are a crucial component of traditional diets in sub-Saharan Africa, used popularly in soups, sauces, and stews. In this review, we trace the trajectories of 12 prominent African indigenous vegetables (AIVs) in tropical America, in order to better understand the diffusion of their culinary and ethnobotanical uses by the African diaspora. The 12 AIVs were selected from African reference works and preliminary reports of their presence in the Americas. Given the importance of each of these vegetables in African diets, our working hypothesis was that the culinary traditions associated with these species would be continued in tropical America by Afro-descendant communities. However, a review of the historical and contemporary literature, and consultation with scholars, shows that the culinary uses of most of these vegetables have been gradually lost. Two noteworthy exceptions include okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) and callaloo (Amaranthus viridis), although the latter is not the species used in Africa and callaloo has only risen to prominence in Jamaica since the 1960s. Nine of the 12 AIVs found refuge in the African- derived religions Candomblé and Santería, where they remain ritually important. In speculating why these AIVs did not survive in the diets of the New World African diaspora, one has to contemplate the sociocultural, economic, and environmental forces that have shaped—and continue to shape—these foodways and cuisines since the Atlantic slave trade.

  • Food in African Brazilian Candomblé
    Food in African Brazilian Candomblé PATRICIA RODRIGUES DE SOUZA he aim of this article is to highlight the importance of food in the rituals of African Brazilian TCandomblé, as well as in its cosmovision (world view). A brief description of Candomblé’s his- torical trajectory is provided in order to show how food offerings became part of its rituals and how specific ingredients became symbolically significant in this belief system. According to the theories applied, it is possible that food has at least two functions in Candomblé: to materialize principles and also to work as a ritual language. To show the role of food in Candomblé the state of Bahia was taken as a case study – firstly because Candomblé started there and secondly because, as this article shows, the sacred foods of Candomblé are also consumed in everyday life, outside of reli- gious situations, but just as importantly constituting a part of Bahian cultural identity. The dishes that feature in the ritualised meals and at the same time in Bahians’ everyday eating are described at the conclusion of the article, with a mention of their ingredients and to whom they are offered. The research sources included publications by Candomblé believers and scholars of religion, as well as cooks and journalists specialising in Bahian cuisine. Most studies about food and religion are carried out by scholars of religion rather than of food or nutrition and it would seem that religious studies have been more concerned with understanding food practices in the religious field than food studies have been concerned with the impact of religion on food habits.

You have reached the Bra- zilian state of Pernambuco and the exciting northern coastal city of Recife (he–see–fee). Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean where the Capibaribe and Beberibe rivers flow out to the sea, Recife is actually closer to the west coast of Africa than it is to the farthest western border of Brazil itself. Just 8°3′ south of the equator, it is understandable that the weather remains warm year round.
