Tastes, knowledge, cooking tell us about a people’s history and soul. No other cuisine is richer in colours, flavours and food varieties than the Brazilian one. Over 500 years of coexistence between natives, European conquerors and African culture have led to a multitude of dishes, either created or adapted to the inhabitants’ tastes, as well as to a wonderful intermingling of flavours, always closely related to local produce such as fruits, vegetables and spices.
“Sabor Brasil” started as an Italian site but, considering the increasing number of people from many countries visiting it, we are working to add the English interface. So let’s start with the recipes!
Welcome to Sabor Brasil! I hope you enjoy the taste of Brazilian cuisine!
“Sabor Brasil” is now a book with hundreds of traditional recipes interspersed with tales and stories in a fascinating journey through knowledge and taste.
Besides illustrating ingredients and culinary procedures, it tells the story of recipe origins, often linked to a specific geographical area and the influence of cultures that come from afar. It tells how food is perceived by the Brazilian people and describes both the places where it is eaten and the rituals that accompany it.

I’m an architect. I was born in Brazil and my father was Italian.
“Eating well” is a heritage of Humanity. With this site I wish to share my passion for cooking. For every recipe, I’ve tried to use simple and traditional ingredients and not complicated working procedures. All recipes have been “tested and approved” by my Italian friends.
