Some of the typical foods of Brazil are; Picanha, Sarapatel, Feijoada, Acarajé, Vatapá, Moqueca de pescado, Pato no tucupi.

I’m going to focus on two of these dishes:

-Picanha. Is a cut of beef called sirloin cap in the United States or the rump cap in the United Kingdom, that is popular in Portugal and Brazil. In the United States, it is little known, but referred to as the rump cover, rump cap, or culotte. North American butchers generally divide it into other cuts like the rump, the round, and the loin. It consists of the M. biceps femoris muscle and its fat cap.

-Feijoada. Is one of the typical dishes of Brazilian cuisine (considered a national dish), of the gastronomy of Portugal and also very common in Mozambique and Angola. Its basic ingredients are beans (usually black in Brazil, white or red in Portugal) and salted pork. It is usually accompanied by rice and oranges. In almost all Brazilian territory is usually sprinkled with cassava flour (yucca) and in many parts is used a mixture of that flour with other ingredients, such as eggs, sausage, among others, called farofa.
