A Trip to Ouro Preto and the Cuisine of Minas Gerais/Comida Mineira

We are going to the historic town of Ouro Preto for a few days and are excited to try the food of the state of Minas Gerais first-hand. Mineiro cuisine is considered some of the best and most “Brazilian” in Brazil, and it is widely lauded and replicated throughout the country. Minas Gerais is the home of one of our all-time favorite Brazilian foods – Pão de Queijo – but that is just scratching the surface. Other famous Mineira foodstuffs include: Minas cheese, Couve Mineira (Mineran Kale), Frango com Quiabo (chicken with okra), Feijão Tropeiro (meat, beans and rice) and many more. Hopefully we will have some tales of delicious Mineira food to share.
