Understand and experiment the best of Brazilian culinary tradition. A book dedicated to the gastronomy of this incredible country, the result of an intersection of distant cultures from each other, such as that of the indigenous natives, African slaves, Portuguese colonists, later influenced by Arab, Japanese and European immigrants. A mixture of ingredients, flavors and spices which makes the Brazilian cuisine unique, as unique is this country. The book is not just a simple recipe, but traces a brief overview of the historical roots of Brazilian cuisine, its origins, its trajectory, its turning into a real gastronomic culture and those who are its pillars, the daily of the supply of Brazilian, rice and beans, feijoada, and the undisputed queen of the kitchen, cassava. Without forgetting the drink that more than any other embodies the spirit of Brazil: the cachaca

Bring the flavors of Brazil to your table with this collection of authentic and classic Brazilian recipes! ***BLACK AND WHITE EDITION***Brazilian cooking has gained international popularity thanks to its exotic mix of African, Portuguese and indigenous cuisines. And Brazilian food inspiration does not stop there, as many cultures - primarily German, Middle Eastern, Italian and Japanese have played their role in influencing many of Brazil's classic cuisines. So although it starts with the indigenous tribes-and usually beans and rice-Brazilian food represents a fusion of many different culinary traditions and food cultures. Amazonian ingredients add a special touch. Locally grown tropical fruits and vegetables make meals wholesome and full of vibrant flavors. Many assume that cooking Brazilian recipes is a complex and time-consuming task. But while it is true that many of the recipes sound exotic, they are actually quite manageable and approachable. It also helps that Brazil is a developing country where most food is cooked at home and prepared from scratch. That means that most dishes are easy to prepare at home without any special kitchen skills or utensils. Inside this illustrated cookbook, you'll find 50 authentic Brazilian recipes including: Some information about the Brazilian food culture and the ingredients used for cooking authentic Brazilian dishes. Delightful appetizers and salads such as the Salt Cod Croquettes and the Cornmeal Empanadas. Traditional soups and stews such as the Black Bean Stew with Smoked Meats and the Heart of Palm Soup. Wholesome main entrees like the Beef Rump Steak BBQ and the Brazilian Churrasco BBQ. Vegetarian, side, beans and rice recipes such as the Vegetarian Bobo and the Black Eye Peas and Rice Delicious desserts such as the Chocolate Truffles and the Grilled Spiced Pineapple.

Widely perceived as an overwhelmingly Catholic nation, Brazil has experienced in recent years a growth in the popularity of Buddhism among the urban, cosmopolitan upper classes. In the 1990s Buddhism in general and Zen in particular were adopted by national elites, the media, and popular culture as a set of humanistic values to counter the rampant violence and crime in Brazilian society. Despite national media attention, the rapidly expanding Brazilian market for Buddhist books and events, and general interest in the globalization of Buddhism, the Brazilian case has received little scholarly attention. Cristina Rocha addresses that shortcoming in Zen in Brazil. Drawing on fieldwork in Japan and Brazil, she examines Brazilian history, culture, and literature to uncover the mainly Catholic, Spiritist, and Afro-Brazilian religious matrices responsible for this particular indigenization of Buddhism. In her analysis of Japanese immigration and the adoption and creolization of the Sôtôshû school of Zen Buddhism in Brazil, she offers the fascinating insight that the latter is part of a process of "cannibalizing" the modern other to become modern oneself. She shows, moreover, that in practicing Zen, the Brazilian intellectual elites from the 1950s onward have been driven by a desire to acquire and accumulate cultural capital both locally and overseas. Their consumption of Zen, Rocha contends, has been an expression of their desire to distinguish themselves from popular taste at home while at the same time associating themselves with overseas cultural elites.
