Canja | Portuguese Chicken Soup

[@KathytheMama777]

Great video! I miss my mother so much watching this video ❤My parents were both born in the Azores. I have never been there, but my husband and I are going soon.

I grew up in the Island of Terceira and I've never seen canja with vegetables or egg yolk. But every Island is different. I make it often and my family loves it. I will definitely try with vegetables. Thank you

[@richardsequeirateixeira]

I have seen this in Coimbra and in Porto.

[@NS-tz3nt]

I have never seen it with egg yolk either . Bizarre .

Yummy soup. Eaten as dinner soup Xmas eve in Madeira.. when people used to have their own chickens was an amazing smell of cinnamon and cloves on xmas evening

[@margaridasilva5184]

I'm portuguese and we eat canja very often, not only when we are sick. I never saw canja with vegetables, we only use onion and some garlic, rice or small pasta, a little bit olive oil or only the fat of the chicken and we cooked all together. This recipe is so weird.

[@JustCookwithMichael]

My family is from Madeira Island, I grew up with a very similar canja as you did chicken, a little bit of rice, and onion. Usually had it on Christmas Eve. In doing some research for this recipe I discovered there are many variations depending on the region of Portugal you're from. In fact that's one of the things I discovered that most fascinating while doing these videos is how different the different regions can be: for example, I grew up with Acoda soup always been made with thyme, but in many areas of Portugal cilantro it's very common. I love hearing the stories about peoples traditions. Thank you!

Do you have a recipe for chickpea soup with linquica...

[@JustCookwithMichael]

This is not my recipe but here is one I found. I hope it’s helpful. Garbanzo fchickpeas with Linguiçaand potatoes) 2 cups of raw chickpeas (you can also use two cans of cooked garbanzo beans) 6cups of water 1 to 2 garlic cloves, crushed or shaken 1 chopped onion 1 linquica sausage in cubes 50g. of bacon in cubes or strips 2 diced medium potatoes 1/2 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh herbs Olive oil, salt and pepper as you like Soak the chickpeas in enough water to cover it, preferably overnight. After that, drain well, place the beans in a pan and add the 5 cups of water. Cook until tender but still firm (in a pressure cooker for about 10 minutes and in a regular pot for about 20 minutes). Drain and set aside the beans and broth. In another pan, heat a little oil and saute the garlic and onion. When it starts to brown, add the sausage and bacon. Stir quickly and add the chickpea cooking broth, potatoes and herbs. Simmer for about 10 minutes so that the potatoes cook without falling apart. Finally, return the pre-cooked chickpeas to the pan - if you prefer them to be softer than they are, let them cook with the potato for a while longer. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve afterwards with a good pepper and, if you like, toast or a slice of bread. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHa2fWmejql_mKs

Have you tried cutting up the chicken and browning it to add even more flavor

[@JustCookwithMichael]

Hi Michael, Great idea! I haven’t tried that. Although I think that would be a nice additional layer of flavor. Generally when I make a video I research about 10 recipes and try to stay with the most common traditional approach. 🍻

"Canja" is not made from chicken but from hen. And you do not use vegetables. Your recipe looks like more of an Americans chicken soup.

[@EduardaBenjamim-hp7hd]

Isto não é cánja ,e sim sopa de legumes é a minha openiâo

[@alexdelacerna7359]

to much talking

[@estelamoura5954]

Sorry but Canja has no onions, eggs or garlic...Never heard about it, I am sorry...
