DAY 21 TILL DAY 24 OF THE 100 DAY PROJECT

More food from my little island Madeira...



Day 21: Chicharros com molho vilao, cemilha cozinha e salada com alface, tomate e cebola  (chicharro in english is horse-mackerel, cemilha is the regional name for potato)
Day 22: Queijadas. It's a delicious cake and my favourite. Made from requeijao (a kind of bitter and fresh cheese)
Day 23: Polvo de escabeche (polvo= Octopus; escabeche= pickled). It's prepared fresh and can be keep a few days but not keeped like pickled onions (at least not in my family!). It can be very acidic due to vinager and white wine! Still delicious...
Day 24: Malassadas. There's a typical Carnival (Mardi Gras) food but we used to make any time. They are drizzled with Sugar Cane Honey (molasse). Delicious, super sweet and full of oil (not for every day...)
