Caldo Verde (Kale Soup)

A thick potato broth studded with thread-thin shredded kale and slices of chorizo — Portugal's national soup. Humble ingredients, but the silky potato base, smoky chorizo, and generous olive oil make it deeply comforting.

Pastel de Nata (Egg Tart)

Portuguese egg tart (pastel de nata) — a crisp puff-pastry shell filled with sweet custard and baked in a screaming-hot oven until the top blisters and caramelizes. Crisp outside, creamy inside, best warm.
