PORTO SEGURO
Typical Cooking
The gastronomy of Porto Seguro is basically the same as of Bahia. Its largest
influence is of the African origin, mainly in the seasoning with herbs and
peppers brought from there but the Portuguese cooking and Indian Cooking also
had a great influence.
The Moqueca is one of the most popular dishes, consists in cooking the sea food
or fish with dendê oil, green peppers, tomatoes, onion, coriander seed and
coconut milk, accompanied with pirão and farofa. Another dish is the Vatapá with
sea food or chicken, with dendê oil, peanuts and green peppers, and the Shrimp
caruru, with fresh dry shrimp. The Acarajé, a small ball of beans filled with a
shrimp sauce also is very popular.
Many dishes are served with pepper which is sometimes added directly to the
food. Check first or ask for your dish without pepper.
