Portuguese cuisine influenced the world. You can find remnants of it on almost every continent. Salted cod found everywhere, piri-piri chicken ( like nandos) , to chicken vindaloo, egg tarts in Asia, tempura in japan, Hawaiian sweet rolls and Malasadas, and fish and chips as some examples.

An Australian MasterChef judge described a Portuguese dish as "looking so simple but being so complex" and I think that describes pretty well the whole Portuguese cuisine. I've seen some reactors think some of our dishes are expensive dishes you'll eat for a family dinner once in a blue moon, but all of the dishes on that video, mainly the seafood ones, were just regular dishes you'd cook on a weekday evening. I think one of the most beautiful things about Portuguese cuisine is that most of our best dishes were created by farmers or fishers or other people without many possessions in medieval times, using only basic ingredients they could afford at the time, so now we have this rich history all over the country where each town you go to has a wildly different cuisine from the town a few miles away, some even rooted in legends and historical events. Alheira, for example, which is a type of sausage made from chicken, bread, and spices, which is also often grilled on liquor like the chorizo shown in the video, was supposedly invented by Jews who pretended to have converted to Christianism to avoid persecution during the Portuguese Inquisition. Given the fact that eating pork was forbidden for them, having no pork in your home was a giveaway that you were probably Jew, so these sausages were great at resembling pork sausages and not draw any suspicions, or so the legend says. The original recipe for Pastéis de Nata, which you can buy at Pastéis de Belém in Lisbon, is said to only be known by three people who never travel or eat together to avoid an accident or food poisoning from making the recipe lost forever. While highly unlikely, given that the workers must know the recipe to produce it, it's nowhere near as wild as the Galo de Barcelos origin history, where a dead rooster on a plate came to life to prove a man hadn't committed a crime he was accused of. While these are mostly legends or embellished facts, there's a whole form of pastry cuisine, Doçaria Conventual, which originated from nuns making tons of different pastry recipes using egg yolks, lots of sugar, and nuts, mainly almonds, from the times Portuguese convents were part of the largest exports of eggs in Europe and we had more yolks than what we knew what to do with, given that only the whites were exported, mostly for wine production and ironing clothes (those were some wildly different times). It is so spread out across our country, culture, and history, that it is an actual course you can take at universities and culinary schools, almost like its own field of study.

Portugal, with more than 4 million km2 of maritime areas, is the largest coastal state in the EU and also one of the largest in the world. If we consider only the terrestrial territory, Portugal is a relatively small country, with just over 92,000 km2. However, considering its maritime dimension, Portugal is one of the largest countries in the world. With the extension of the continental platform, we will have a country with almost 4 million km2, where the marine territory is 40 times larger than the terrestrial one... so yes indeed, we eat a lot of fish.

Think about that. 15:15 - Search on Yelp or Trip Advisor for Portuguese restaurants in Chicago and you'll find many.

I see the word Portugal I click! And I love that I'm watching her eat a vegetarian version of a Francesinha while I'm literally eating a hot dog version with the cheese and beer sauce and fries right now 🤣 Also wanted to add a fun fact about the Bifanas: when there is local fooball/soccer matches from small clubs, there is always a giant pot in the bar with bifanas in the sauce (not unlike the one that they showed in this video at 2:15) and plenty of beer of course XD. There is almost always 2/3 people working there: one cutting the bread in half, another stirring the pot and putting it on the bread, and one pouring the beer into plastic cups. There is always people eating bifanas no pão and drinking beer and in the half-time, even the players go and eat XD (at least from what I remember...I don't know about now but I imagine that it hasn't changed much :P)

I love fish, but even if it's not your favourite I think you'd struggle not to find a fish dish you like in Portugal (the British favourite fish 'n' chips was introduced to us from Portugal, as was marmalade, and tea drinking), and it's always nice to eat fish on the shore of the sea where they caught it. The British mostly borrowed food from the countries we colonised, but the Portuguese were great exporters of dishes and cooking methods, such as the Indian curry style vindaloo, hot pepper sauce piri piri, and Japanese tempura. This video didn't say much about the traditional dessert pastel de nata, but if you're down in Lisbon the most famous place to buy it is the Fábrica de Pastéis de Belém, which is worth a visit for the beautiful decoration of the building alone, with its traditional ceramic tiles inside and out. Don't be put off by the long queue of tourists outside, it moves quickly and the pastries are worth waiting for.

I have visited Portugal 4 times over the years and have some friends from Portugal. Portuguese food really isn't bad stuff! Grilled Sardines (and the way of eating them) are not my cup of tea. Also the national fish Bacalhau, is not for everyone. But in general, Portuguese seafood is really great. The meat dishes (especially flambéed skewers) are really great. The desserts, particularly sweet bits and cakes, are far too sweet for me and are only surpassed by Turkish and Arabic stuff. Bolos, of course, should be sweet. But the same applies to the use of sugar as to everything else, there is use and abuse. Unfortunately, Portuguese bread is, first and foremost, white wheat bread. But given the possibilities that wheat offers as a raw material, the Portuguese bakers are doing a good job. What might also be worth mentioning is that the Portuguese (in contrast to some other European nations) know how to brew a decent beer. Superbock and Sagres beers are ubiquitous and really not overpriced. All in all, one can say that Portuguese cuisine is really very good. And if you should really be on the road there, then take a break in one of the long-distance driver's bars. The food there(which has always been affordable) is not expensive and with a bit of luck you will have an elderly lady in her 60s in the kitchen who will cook you just as well as she would cook for her grandson... My insider tip: Lulas fritas If all you've ever known is these chewy, breaded squid rings, this dish will take you the other way... 😃

One quick comment - we don't usually use chicken stock (nor any sort of fish or meat stocks) in our soups. Just plain water. However, we do strive to extract as much flavour as possible from every single ingredient. Our food tends to be hearty and confort food, but trying to celebrate each ingredient instead of covering it. That's the reason why you won't find a ton of side sauces and salsas in Portugal, nor you'll find that we add sugar and a bunch of other stuff in our food.

I can't eat a whole Francesinha, but most people here can. If you ever come here, yes, try the fish, especially in the coastline towns. It's top-quality! Thanks for the video!

Also you could eat an whole Francesinha, the trick is to only eat the sandwich first them the potatoes... and of course no entry courses, only the main meal. And a "pro" tip, the francesinha is eaten from the corners, like small triangles, its the best way to eat it without messing it up and make the tower go down. @IWroker you got a Portugal restaurant near you called "Nando's PERi-PERi"

Porto is one of the most beautiful cities in portugal. And not just because of the arquitecture, what makes it so special is mostly the people. The north is so welcoming that you feel like you are n a big village ( lisbon is very beautiful as well but lacks the good mood and hapiness of the north). It's so easy to just start walking and before you know it you've walked the entire city. The food is simply amazing as all food the in Portugal (underrated and unknown) And! It has the most beautiful football (soccer) stadium of Portugal: estadio do dragão or dragon's stadium Its a city placed at the end of one of the biggest rivers and because of that you have so many bridges and beautiful ones as well. View over the river and over the Atlantic ocean. Suberb wine from the region and amazing cultural places and gardens. If you ever decide to visit Porto (there's an airport so you dont have to go through Lisbon) try to visit the rest of the north because it's a life changing experience ( even for a Portuguese person myself)

Inspite of having finished dinner of Hungarian Goulash, home cooked, only about a hour ago, this video leaves me hungry again for some of those dishes. Though it would likely be a problem of being too full already.😮❤❤❤

@IWrockwer if you visit Porto some day on your life, i will be your free guide to this INVICTA city of Porto. Francesinha, once you put in your mouth, you would want to eat it all, my francesinha sauce has 26 different ingredients, with the "company" of a SUPER BOCK beer. About fish, trying a grilled seabass, you would be amazed. Thank you for the video

Dude, there are vast differences between an oyster from Wal-Mart and an oyster on a small row boat you took to the mussel fields of the farmer who took you there in Croatia in Mali Ston and he opens the fresh oyster in front of you, so you can eat it. These two oysters are like heaven and hell difference, my friend. The fresh ones are as different to the store ones like bananas to strawberries.

Not the real portuguese food. Theses peoples are going foreigners places. As you can see, there is no portuguese peoples eating here. Go Fado restaurant or go country side and ask for a coffee and a aguardente ! :o)

I go to spain at least once every year (not 2021), but people hyped up portugal.. and. Let me tell you they was right. Portugal is a freqking amazing destination. Its easy and simple. Its cheap. They have loads of great nature and cities.. while a lot of spanish desrination is sort of one trick ponies...... .... but that trick is kind of good. You want a wide experiance. Portugal is the place. Its like nowhere else in europe (and people understand english) To be fair. Iberian penisula use to be.. well more or less, 4 countries. 3 of them is today spain. And one part of spain is very diffrent from a other. Still. Portugal is much mure pur

As a portuguese sub i can tell you caldo verde doesn't take chicken stock. Fish here usually is grilled , garlic, slat and 🫒 oil on top with a salad. Prego its a snack and not a meal. Like a cheeseburger. The orange.drink is sangria. Pica pau it's a snack to share with friends while watching a ⚽ match. If u came to Portugal,buzz me . IL take u out for a 🍺 and to see some different cars and trucks!!! Best to u!! PS. Unlike races. Check out BTCC !!!! Best racing series ever
