Salted Cod 📍 Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷 Taste Brazil: Although cod has never lived in Brazilian waters, it became one of the country's most iconic foods through centuries of maritime trade. Atlantic cod caught in the cold waters of Norway was salted and dried to preserve it for long... sea voyages, then shipped to Portugal, where bacalhau became a staple of the national cuisine. During the colonial era, the Portuguese brought this tradition to Brazil, where it took root and has remained ever since. Today, Brazil is one of the world's largest importers of salted cod, with Norway continuing to be one of its main suppliers. The fish is first soaked in water for more than 24 hours to remove excess salt before being gently cooked. It is most commonly served with boiled potatoes, olive oil, onions, olives, eggs, and fresh parsley, creating one of Brazil's most beloved traditional meals. Credits: Baixa Gastronomiashow more
