National Entrée

For 300 years, feijoada has reigned supreme in the Brazilian kitchen. Invented by slaves, who started mixing their masters' pork leftovers to the black beans that were used to feed the animals, it got a touch of Portuguese and Indian cuisines and today is served all over from the hole-in-the-wall little joints to the most sophisticated restaurants. And every family seems to have its own feijoada favorite recipe.
