Gaúcho rice with charque, linguiça and cubed pork fat.
About Arroz de Galpão
Arroz de galpão is presented here through the Gaúcho section of Caieiras’s Brazilian regional cookery course. Its white rice cooks with charque strips, linguiça rounds and cubes of toucinho.
The cured beef and sausage give a concentrated savoury flavour. Onion and garlic provide the aromatic base, with colorau contributing its named seasoning and colour.
The rice absorbs the cooking liquid around the meat pieces. Rendered pork fat and a little oil enrich the grains; this course recipe specifies no garnish or final serving temperature.
