How to make rice & beans • Brazilian recipe

Today I am going to share with you this amazing Brazilian food. More than a recipe, a life style. Growing up in Brazil, I ate rice and beans every day, except Sundays, along with a protein and veggies, and I was never bored.

One of the best meals I’ve ever had was rice and beans topped with a fried egg from an Ecuadorian ristorante. 😋

Which part of Brasil they add tomatoes to the 🫘? 😮I am from São Paulo and I have never seen beans with tomatoes anywhere! Is it in the South?

[@ChefPaulaRomero]

I'm from SP as well. I had beans with tomatoes at my friend's mom's house, who is from Blumenau ( South), I liked it very much and have been doing it ever since. Thanks for your comment 🙂

You came up as a YT suggestion and I was expecting portuguese. (Which I can still read, but it is 20 years since I really spoke it) vinte anos atrás eu diria obrigado, mas agora, obrigadA 🏳️‍⚧️ Gosto!

[@angelaclapp2712]

This looks super delicious and healthy! Thank you for sharing!! Can you tell me what type of dried beans were used in this dish?

[@iggyboyo]

I live in north america and the closest one I found is pinto beans. I make the brazilian recipe with them and it tastes pretty much the same Edit: if you can't find pinto beans, romano beans might be the next best choice

[@ChefPaulaRomero]

Thanks! You can use pinto beans.

[@AlineRodrigues-jc7nx]

Thank you! ❤

[@ChristinaLipe-f4r]

Do you save the fat from the bacon or do you discard it ? Thank you

[@SilviaHenry]

Amazing video! Vc usou o carioquinha ou pinto beans?

[@carolyn7298]

Thank you! I can’t wait to make this dish.😁

[@ElizaDolittle]

This dish is full of Italian flavors as well. Italians often pair beans with bay leaves. They usually mix it with pasta, but sometimes use rice. The only difference is that Italians would use pancetta and not bacon - bacon is the smoked version of pancetta (they call bacon "pancetta affumicata"). That being said, I'm Italian and I have used bacon for my bean dishes. The one you made here looks delicious!

[@ChefPaulaRomero]

Thanks!

[@wanderingeyes11]

perfeito!

[@aden_hawke]

Hey does anyone know What type of beans these are?

[@boocty]

cariocas beans

[@juniorsouza3690]

In usa we called "pinto beans"

[@Itsfine416]

[@cristinasoder]

Esse feijão marrom chamamos de feijão carioca. Mas têm muitos tipos de feijão que você pode cozinhar assim. O que não são bons pra cozinhar pra comer com arroz e o feijão branco e o feijão fradinho porquê não fazem caldo grosso. Faça uma pesquisa no Google quais são os tipos de feijão que depois de cozidos ficam com um caldo grosso. Esses são bons pra comer com arroz. Abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷

[@rahndail3863]

If I don't have a pressure cooker, is there an alternate method to cook the beans?

[@cristinasoder]

Primeiro você lava o feijão depois você deixa ele de molho na água até inchar. Até que ele aumente de tamanho, assim o feijão não vai demorar tanto pra cozinhar. Se você não tiver panela de pressão com esse método você cozinha o feijão muito mais rápido. Você pode cozinhar o feijão em qualquer panela e não vai demorar tanto pra cozinhar se você deixar ele inchar ( aborsover a água _ deixar de molho na água primeiro). Você pode temperar o feijão com bacon frito, alho, pimenta moida ou cortada em pedaços, e fritar a linguiça de porco e só depois e que você coloque o feijão e a água pra cozinhar na mesma panela que você fritou os temperos. Aqui nos também fazemos um prato típico brasileiro chamado de feijoada. A feijoada é feita com feijão préto e carne de porco. Você pode temperar o feijão como ja expliquei . Quando você for colocar o feijão preto pra cozinhar você temperar e coloca apenas carne de porco pra cozinhar junto desde o início. Pode colocar rabo, orelha, pé, costela. bacon e linguiça frita antes. Se tiver um pouco de carne de porco defumada e bom colocar pra ficar com gosto de defumado. A feijoada é acompanhada de arroz branco, laranja, farrofa e couve brasileira. Faça uma pesquisa no Google ou no KZbin que você vai encontrar a receita e verá como e a couve, porquê não sei se têm no seu país. Cozinhe o feijão e a carne tudo junto. Mas esteja sempre cuidando e mexendo porquê o caldo fica grosso e pode queimar fácil. Boa sorte. Abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷
