In this episode Billy and today’s guest Ana Bento chat all things Portugal.
Ana Bento was born on the west coast of Portugal and raised in Toronto. She speaks of Portugal and the food with such love and detail you can’t help but want to pick up your phone and Google “closest Churrasqueira”. Trust us, you will want to have some roasted chicken, some wine, followed by a glass of Port after listening to this episode.
Rissóis is a Portuguese pastry, typically stuffed with shrimp in a cream sauce wrapped in a pastry. Similar shape to a Jamaican patty's but usually a but smaller.
Pastel de Nata is a custard set in a pastry, it originates from Belém, west of Lisbon.
Shout out to Toronto spots: bakery Nova Era & Bairrada Churrasqueira Grill on College street.
When asked what her parents think about her dietary restrictions: “Confusion. They don’t know what it’s like to exist without bread.”

Disclaimer: I have not yet attempted gluten free Rissóis but when I do, I will share the recipe on my Instagram.
