Brazilian cuisine is a melting pot of Indigenous, African, and European influences. The sides that accompany churrasco reflect this history. Cassava (mandioca) was a staple food for Indigenous peoples long before European colonization. African influence brought ingredients like dendê oil and unique cooking techniques to the table. Rice, though originating in Asia, became a common accompaniment with Portuguese influence.

A symphony of textures and tastes, ranging from the nutty and earthy to the tangy and refreshing, creating a balanced complement to grilled meats.
Mandioca (cassava) offers a starchy, slightly sweet flavor, often served boiled, fried, or mashed. Rice provides a neutral base. Farofa (toasted cassava flour) introduces a crunchy texture and a nutty, sometimes smoky, flavor, often seasoned with bacon, onions, or eggs. Vinaigrette brings a refreshing acidity with its blend of tomatoes, onions, peppers, vinegar, and oil.

Perfecting Farofa
Toast the cassava flour slowly over medium heat to develop a nutty flavor without burning. Experiment with adding different ingredients like bacon, sausage, or vegetables for personalized flavors.
Elevating Vinaigrette
Use high-quality olive oil and fresh herbs. Allow the vinaigrette to sit for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Adjust the acidity with lime or lemon juice.
Mandioca Mastery
When boiling mandioca, add a pinch of salt to the water. Ensure the mandioca is fully cooked until easily pierced with a fork. Frying it adds a crispy texture.
