This recipe seem very good too, I love the articles that are like this one, short and easy to understand, because those articles with thousands and thousands of words just make me bored and then I stop paying attention to what you say, so please consider summarizing things
It’s strange to think that different culture have such different ways of preparing the same foods that we eat! They just eat them in different ways!! I’d really like to try this recipe in a local, Portuguese restaurant, because I’m sure it would be so much more different than me following this recipe and making it at home.
