Hello from Portugal
« on: January 04, 2010, 01:56:25 am »
Hello everybody! :)
My Name is Isabel and I am from Portugal!
I found this Forum and hope to learn a lot about your Recipes!
I wont write a lot because my English is not very good so it is not easy for me, but I will try to put some of our Portuguese Food Culture here so you can try it too!
Tomorrow I am going to buy a Dictionary to help me :D
Bye Bye and sorry for my Errors 8)

Hi isi, lovely you found our forum.  No problems with your English, you did very well so don't let that hold you back.  Pop in to chat anytime you feel like it.

Hi and welcome Isi.  You English is fantastic, well done.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Hi Isi welcome. Don't be shy. If you just type near enough we will understand. My Portuguese is hopeless :-)) Hopefully you will be posting some delicious Portuguese recipes.

Hi and welcome! I'd love to learn more about Portuguese culture and food!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

isi,

Welcome to the forum. It's great having someone from Portugal. I LOVE Portuguese food. It would be nice for the world to get to know about the great LUSO dishes and snacks.

Looking forward to your recipes.

Obrigado e boa noite

What MM said "Obrigado e boa noite" - welcome isi - don't worry about your spelling and grammar - you do a lot better than I do with Italian and Spanish and it doesn't stop me trying to use their forums.

Looking forward to some Portuguese dishes - I have some baccala desalting in the fridge at the moment.  :-* :-* :-* :-*

Doing a brandade and then using it in a couple of different ways - one weird way (what else  :-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) ) from an old cookbook using chard stems  :o :o :o :o  Probably stuff some zucchini flowers and maybe some peppers.
