Portuguese cuisine
Lisbon's traditional fare
Portuguese cuisine is the traditional cooking of Portugal, shaped by Atlantic seafood, olive oil, garlic, and fresh herbs.
Bacalhau (salt cod) appears in hundreds of preparations and is considered the national ingredient.
Dishes like caldo verde (kale soup), sardines, and custard tarts (pastéis de nata) define the repertoire.
The cuisine influenced and borrowed from former colonies in Brazil, Africa, and Asia.
