⚠️ Our Portuguese Recipes group on Facebook, was hacked on Wednesday (July 12th) in the morning.

I’m Ed Costa, the original admin of the recipes group there, and I had been sharing recipes there daily since 2017. Unfortunately, I was removed and banned by the hacker, who is using a fake name — Mark Price — and is the one currently posting in the group.

If you're still a member of that group, please take a moment to notice that I'm no longer there and that all the recipes I had shared are now gone.

Please leave the group immediately, staying there puts you at risk of being scammed or worse.

I’ve reported this issue to Facebook several times, but so far, they haven’t responded or taken any action.

To keep our community going, I’ve created a brand-new Portuguese Recipes page on Facebook. If you'd like to keep receiving daily recipes and support what we’ve built over the years, please “Like” or “Follow” our new Facebook Recipes Page by clicking here.

Thank you to everyone who has supported and followed our recipes on Facebook since 2015. I truly appreciate you and hope you’ll continue with us on this new page.

God bless,
Ed

Preparation

  1. Soak the beans overnight. This step can be skipped but the amount of water added will increase significantly. If you use this latter method start with two inches of water over all prepared ingredients and add more as needed as the beans cook.
  2. Cook the bacon, not to crisp, in a dutch oven and drain off excess fat.
  3. Add chopped onion to the bacon and continue cooking.
  4. Add bell pepper and cook until pepper begins to soften.
  5. Add soaked beans and water. Turn burner to medium heat until the beans begin to boil. Turn the heat to low for simmering heat.
  6. Add tomato sauce and the spices. Hold salt and pepper for now. Cover and cook until beans are tender. Depending on the soaked beans or not this could take several hours. Remember to check from time to time to add water as needed.
  7. Slice or chop the linguica. Cook over medium heat until slightly brown. This process will remove some of the excess fat. Drain after cooking. Add linguica and continue cooking. After about 30 minutes check for need of salt and pepper. Add as needed.
  8. Cook until beans are tender.

I’m trying to recapture my dads recipe. At first I thought the green pepper was nuts, but the more I think about it, and I’m talking 40+ years ago, I think I recall something green in the beans. I may try it! Thanks for helping to re-spark my interest.

This is a little different from the Portuguese Bean Soup I grew up with. My family is from the Azores, so I suppose it's possible that that's the difference, or someone changed it overtime. People do make changes to recipes. We never used green peppers. We used pink beans, bacon or linguica, 3 onions, garlic, tomato sauce, brown sugar, cumin, and 1/8 tsp. each allspice, cinnamon and cloves. The spices were what made this dish special. It brings back good memories!

Chourico in SA is horribly expensive so I used a locally made Russian Sausage. All I can say is WOW it was Delicious.
