Bill, Lynne, Marianne and Mitch, please accept the Portuguese full course menu below, as a little token of appreciation for your smart guess. Mind you, Portuguese people don't eat much meat but fish, instead.
NEXT ROUND: Monday, February 11, 2013
~~ Thanks all of you who took part in the FUN! ~~
~~ Have a great rest of the week ~~
~smile~ ... that menu looks amazing ... what is the dessert? ... Looks ultra yummy. I think I am going to thoroughly enjoy that rice and fish dish ... and the olives ... Thank You Belita and well done to the others!!
ReplyDeleteLynne, the dessert is called 'trouxas', in Portuguese, meaning 'bundles'. They are made with sugar and egg yolks only, wisely and always cooked with patience and slowly. No one knows their origin but it is known that by the end of the nineteenth century a Portuguese writer praised this delicate sweet. That rice and fish dish is a bit heavy and if I have it I can't eat anything else but fruit only.
DeleteI will have to Google the recipe for trouxas, that is a must at my table. Those spoons look such a wonderful quality, much better than the ones I have, please send me a set *winks*

ReplyDeleteJust what I needed ! Thank you, Belita. My turn to cook our friendly dinner in first week March. My theme last time was Italian, this time I chose Portuguese as I have got a promise of Kenneth's girlfriend Meghan, who is a newly baked junior chef and from Portuguese descent, her surname is de Silva. She has promised to help me and I have been trawling Portuguese Restaurant sites here for a menu. Yummy !
