Por que começar aqui

Galinhada is cooked the way Goiás and Minas cooks it — salt judged by hand, fat used generously, and the table set for sharing. This is the home version, written down the way a brazilian family cook actually puts it on the table.

Galinhada is a beloved dish from the heart of Brazil, particularly cherished in the regions of Goiás and Minas Gerais. Prepared with care and a generous hand, it is a celebration of local ingredients and traditional cooking methods. The dish often graces family tables, where the salt is measured by intuition and the richness of fat is embraced, creating a communal meal meant for sharing and enjoying together. The dish offers a comforting blend of flavors, with tender chicken pieces nestled among fragrant saffron or urucum-infused rice. The addition of onions, tomatoes, and a handful of cilantro brings a fresh and vibrant touch, making each bite a delightful balance of savory and aromatic notes. Enjoyed with friends and family, Galinhada is a true testament to the warmth and generosity of Brazilian home cooking.
