Welcome to my Grandmother's Kitchen in Alentejo Portugal

We welcome you into my grandmother's kitchen in Cabeção - Alentejo
We helped out in the kitchen to prepare a very tradicional Portuguese soup (Caldo Verde) cabbaged soup but the highlight of this video has to be the (chouriço assado) grilled Portuguese chouriço. We are really enjoying these moments with the family.

Homemade olive oil from her own olive trees?! Mind blowing! Grandma can cook!

[@Travelgramers]

In our region we grew up having always homemade olive oil and olives too so it’s pretty common for almost everyone to have olive oil even if they don’t have trees, a family member gives them the olive oil or they go to the factory and buy a few litres directly from them 🙃🙃🙃

To bad that it is non halal. I also have a mulberry tree! But it's 1/10th of your grandfather's size. I always find that if the shape of the fruit less perfect the sweeter it is. Sends some love to your grandparents from us the fans.

Wow, your grandparents' place is very interesting, with farm, vegetable garden, vineyard and fruit trees. The drying of sausages at the chimney is also very intetesting and the cabbage look different from the cabbage in Malaysia. The grilling of the sausages is also very facinating. Portuguese food is definitely facinating. Your grandparents' place just reminds me of the youtube videos on farms and vineyards in Albania. Looking forward to see more from Portugal. 👍👍👍

[@Travelgramers]

Thank you so much 😊 we’ll make more videos from Portugal 😁😁

[@cdchooone2554]

It's not ordinary domestic cabbage. Portuguese cabbage aka Tronchuda Beira aka Couve Tronchuda aka Portuguese Kale. Unlike most cabbages, this vegetable doesn't form heads and grows in leaves like kale. That resulted in the alternate common name of Portuguese kale plants. Sweeter and more tender than regular Cabbage, it may be harvested as a whole plant or leaf-harvested to promote center re-growth with paler, milder, frilly leaves. Widely adaptable, Tronchuda tolerates heat spells and can be over-wintered in temperate climates. Traditionally enjoyed in Caldo Verde, the linguica-potato Portuguese soup.
