Home cooking attempt — Bacalhau from scratch
I spent an afternoon making Bacalhau from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting piri piri right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The bright with olive oil and garlic result was rewarding once I got it right.
pastéis de nata originated in Belém monastery in the 18th century. I served it with Port wine as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Bacalhau yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
