Barreado is one of my favorite Brasilian dishes although it's not easy to find it here in Rio de Janeiro.
The recipe here (English): http://flavorsofbrazil.blogspot.com.br/2012/05/recipe-barreado.html The look: |

Yes, ceviche should be uncooked, but the lime juice sort of "cooks" it.
Its an unusual dish for the US, but you can find it sometimes.

Yes, but they normally use fishes from the Pacific and with different sauces. Fish is raw or marinated never cooked or stewed as long as I know. There are Peruvian-Ecuadorian restaurants here in Rio serving this dish too.

Is ceviche known in Brasil, or something similar?

Paella sounds familiar. My brother-in-law from Ecuador makes the best ceviche. You can get ceviche in some Mexican restaurants around here, but its not near as good as what my brother-in-law makes.

Probably the paella... very similar. But I think they use rice at the paella and tomato was added later.

That fish stew looks good too. I've had somewhat similar dishes, possibly a Spanish recipe.

Yes, that drink looks delicious (everything else too). There was a bar in San Franciso that used to make caipirinhas for me, very strong tasting drink.
Memphis is not so cosmopolitan, but if I can locate some cachaca, I'll make my own. I would imagine some liqour store around here might have some cachaca, I'm going to start looking around over the next few days.

I finish today with the moqueca... yummy.
According to Wikipedia: Moqueca (IPA: [moˈkɛkɐ] or IPA: [muˈkɛkɐ] depending on the dialect, also spelled muqueca) is a Brazilian seafood stew based on fish, onions,garlic, tomatoes, and cilantro. It is cooked slowly, with no water added. Originally from the states of Espírito Santo in the Southeast of Brazil and Bahia; nowadays, this dish is found in two different variants: moqueca capixaba from Espírito Santo, and moqueca baiana from Bahia state in the Northeast region. Brazilians have been making moqueca for at least 300 years. We do the moqueca with any kind of fish and also shrimp, crab, lobster, etc. Here's a recipe using basically fish: http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/brazilian-fish-stew-moqueca-de-peixe-10000000234954/ It'll look like this: My favorite uses lobster & shrimp (although it's the most expensive ):

Feijoada and other Brasilian dishes go even better when accompanied with caipirinha. The traditional one is made with lemon but you may use any fruits.
A recipe, in English. |

Ah, just discovered this thread... well, here goes one of our national dishes: feijoada.
For a good recipe, I recommend this page (in English): http://www.maria-brazil.org/feijoada.htm
You may use several types of beans, but around Rio de Janeiro city we prefer with black beans. Edited by Atkingani - 01 Sep 2013 at 4:19pm |

^ that looks like the sort of lunch that would promote traffic altercation behavior.
Summertime is a good time for a favorite treat of mine, sliced mangoes topped with lime juice and a bit of hot sauce.
