Itinerary
This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. The experience begins at Mercado Shangri-lá where you will meet your host Jules before exploring the local market. Share a cold beer and a famous bolinho de carne (beef croquette) in a local bar. After the market tour, head to Jules’ apartment with views of Lake Igapó for your cooking class. Your cooking experience begins in her kitchen and will last about 1.5 hours. Learn to cook traditional Brazilian dishes such as cheese bread, onion farofa (toasted cassava flour), desserts and side dishes. After cooking, sit down to enjoy the traditional Brazilian dishes you helped cook. Your menu might include dishes such as pastéis de angu (corn-fritters filled with jerked beef) or chicken escondidinho (chicken shepherd’s pie with cassava mash), barreado with cassava flour and plantains, moqueca de peixe with pirão (fish in coconut sauce) or a traditional feijoada (black bean stew) with all the trimmings. For dessert, indulge in bolo de milho com goibada (corn cake and guava sauce), musse de maracujá (passion fruit mousse) or pudim de leite condensado (creamy flan).
