Language Lesson- Herbs & Spices
I have been in Brazil for a little while, and while I know enough Portuguese to get me in trouble but I can't make my way around a kitchen. The Brazilian kitchen lacks even the most basic herbs and spices and if I want something other than salt, garlic, and onion then I have to pull out the dictionary and make a trip to the store or open-air market. So, if you are planning on making a meal while in Brazil or translating a recipe, here is a helpful guide of herbs and spices in English and Portuguese. Boa sorte!
