 | | For instance, a bowl of moist and meaty feijoada, a rich fl-bean stew flavored with pork sausage, ham, smoked bacon, and roasted pork, served over rice, with garnishes of farofa, carioca relish (a fresh tomato salsa similar to pico de gallo), and a little pitcher of pepper-lime sauce, summoned up gastronomic memories of jambalaya. |
 | | Shrimp baiana, a traditional toss of luscious flash-sautéed shrimp in a light sauce of garlic, scallion, malaguetta pepper, and coconut milk, was all-Brazilian, yet it held a subtle Thai undertone. |
 | | And prato misto, the feijoada's meat-free cousin, featured the same smoky fl beans served over rice, this time topped with sautéed carrot, asparagus, corn, summer squash, and bits of mushroom, and a garnish of farofa, carioca relish, and fried spinach; the result was a rustic dish that seemed almost archetypal in its simplicity. |
