Northeast Brazilian The Northeast section of Brazil, principally the states of Alagoas, Bahia, Ceará, Maranhão, Paraíba, Pernambuco, Piauí, Rio Grande do Norte, and Sergipe, consists geographically of a narrow, fecund coastal plain with considerable rainfall where a large amount of the population is encountered, an uniformly slender transition zone referred to as the Agreste, and a big semi-arid zone named the Sertão, which is mastered by large cattle ranches. All varieties of tropical produce are grown on the coastal plain, with sugarcane and cacao being particularly extensive. Throughout the State of Bahia the leading cuisine is Afro-Bahian, which progressed from plantation cooks improvising on African, Amerindian, and typical Portuguese dishes using nearby attainable ingredients. Regular foods include vatapá, moqueca (both having seafood and palm oil), and acarajé (a savory muffin composed of white beans, onion and fried in palm oil (dendê) which is stuffed with dried shrimp, red pepper and caruru (mashed okra with ground cashew nut, smoked shrimp, onion, pepper and garlic). The major staple is a dish of white rice and black beans although other typical meals include farofa, paçoca, canjica, pamonha and quibebe. In the remainder of the coastal plains there is less African impact on the food, yet seafood, shellfish, coconut and tropical fruit are menu staples. Generally consumed tropical fruits in the North-eastern region include mango, papaya, guava, orange, passion fruit, pineapple, sweet sop, "hog-plum," sour sop, and cashew (both the fruit and the nut). Each one of these states have their variants in cuisine and type, being Bahia one of the most distinctive of them. In fact, Bahia is the single Brazilian state where the food is spicy, and restaurants will question you whether you want your meal “hot” or “cold”, indicating “spicy hot” or not. They use a whole lot of “pimenta” (pepper) and azeite de dende (a particular kind of oil) to cook their meals. Overall, though, most northeastern states likely will employ tapioca flour and sun-dried beef (carne de sol). Shrimp and fish are also really in demand and cheap. Another characteristic of northeastern food is the amount. Commonly, the meals are truly giving, and a dish can serve two to three people. Many of the favorites from this cuisine are “moqueca de peixe”, acaraje’, vatapa’, tapioca com coco e leite condensado, cashew juice, acerola juice, acai.
Sandwiches are the preferred type of snack in Brazil. While sandwiches are commonly a complete lunch in North America, they are thought of as a light snack in Brazil. This is basically due to the way they are prepared, with minimal meats, vegetables and cheeses used. They are usually two slices of bread, mayo, some cheese and limited meat. Sandwiches aren't the only type of snack available though!
A modest pastel, pao-de-queijo, or a croquete (ground beef breaded and deep fried) are common alternatives as well. Some Brazilians even have sandwiches for dinner, which is always a minimal meal for most Brazilians.
Sandwiches can also be the Sao Paulo “Beirute” and the Southern Brazil “X-burger”. The latter is bigger than a regular cheeseburger and may also be filled with a variety of meats, from chicken, to beef, to pork, and even chicken hearts! The name comes from the way Brazilians pronounce “cheese”, which evolved into the abbreviation “X” (sheeez). The Beirute is a much bigger sandwich. This sandwich is toasted and also much larger than a regular X-burger. It has a Arab influence, as the name “Beirute” alludes to.
