Feijoada This Thanksgiving


Enslaved Africans in Brazil created most of the popular dishes that Brazilian American will serve this thanksgiving. These were dishes they made with the rations they received from Iberians and the food they produced in their gardens. Feijoada is the first Brazilian soul food dish that comes to mind when I think of a Brazilian special occasion food for thanksgiving. Feijoada was made from black beans, rice, and jerked beef; below I have a meat and a meat substitute recipe. Speaking of the popularity of the dish, one traveler to Brazil in the nineteenth century noted that there was “no house so rich as to exclude” feijoada from their table. Feijoada, poultry, fried plantains, orange slices, and a salad represented a classic Brazilian meal; here are two recipes one of them vegetarian for you to consider for your thanksgiving table.
