Much like us, food travels the world. Dishes cross continents. Recipes migrate, meet other cuisines, and create new branches of their culinary family tree. However, some local dishes are just homebodies at heart. No matter how amazing the kitchen, these timeless recipes just don\u2019t taste right unless they\u2019re home.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nThere are as many ways to cook Portugal\u2019s national dish as there are days in the year. That said, one often finds the dried, salted codfish served with cream and potatoes or formed into croquettes. The dish dates as far back as the 15th century – when Portugal was a maritime power. The preserved codfish could be kept onboard ships for long ocean voyages, making it a staple of the Portuguese palate. <\/p>\n

You\u2019ll have plenty of chances to try Bacalhau on the Country Roads of Portugal <\/a>tour. You\u2019ll dine in Lisbon and Porto, eat a tapas lunch in an old olive mill, and visit the birthplace of Past\u00e9is de Bel\u00e9m, the original and patented recipe of Past\u00e9is de Nata not found anywhere else in Portugal, let alone outside the country!<\/p>\n

Homely and comforting, the hearty Sunday roast is as quintessential to British culture as tea and rain. This wholesome meal is traditionally served with beef, due to the royal guards who used to eat beef every Sunday (hence their name: Beefeaters). Also integral to this British tapestry are Yorkshire puddings, roast vegetables, potatoes, and gravy. If you want to try this most authentic of local British dishes, we recommend stopping by a pub on Sunday <\/p>\n
