LEMONGRASS ICE CREAM

Lili says: “Despite being from Asia, lemongrass is easily found in Brazil and has become a much-loved part of our cuisine – especially in our desserts. My lemongrass ice cream is aromatic and refreshing, as well as being incredibly creamy. As an ice cream lover, I think that this is a perfect combination of traditional and contemporary Brazilian food.”

FEIJÃO TROPEIRO

Alina says: “Feijão – sometimes called ‘drover beans’ – is a typical dish from the Minas Gerais region. The main ingredients are beans, various meats, pork rinds, cabbage, farofa and eggs. It’s a beloved dish in Brazil, and its simplicity, charm and flavours always bring me back home.”

@ANNAFISCHER – RIO DE JANEIRO

EGGS & BANANA FAROFA

Anna says: “Farofa is a very popular and a typical side dish in Brazil. It’s made with raw manioc flour, and there are many versions of it. I’m a lover of farofa, and made my twist using toasted manioc flour, linseed, onion, butter, eggs, banana da tarra and scallion. All of these ingredients are extremely cheap and popular in Brazil.”

@WLAD – FLORIPA
