Pizza is my cold weather food. And warm weather. And Fall weather. But my mom's recipe for Shepherd's Pie is my absolute favorite. Oh my god. I love Shepherd's Pie.

Pedro that would be cool , post here a favorite portuguese recipe and I'll try it, the family would love this.
We had pizza last night Ed and it was yummy.
The gravy in biscuits and gravy is made with pork sausage, milk, flour salt and pepper. It is how we in the midwest get so fat. :0)

I've never had Portuguese food. Wouldn't mind a recipe or two. I like trying new food.

Pedro, are you part ethnically Indian or were your grandparents descended from the Portuguese colonists of Goa? It cracks me up how Indians from Goa have Portuguese names.

My favorite cold weather food has to be the boeuf bourguignon. It is even better reheated. **************** Made this for the first time just a few weeks ago. I love to cook and was looking for something different. Excellent dish and highly recommended. However, my favorite cold weather food is my homemade macaroni and cheese. Piping hot right out of the oven.

I have mastered Julia Child's boeuf bourguignon. The lamb stew is pretty much the same recipe as is her coq au vin. Every friend wants me to cook from my Julia Child cookbook for their birthdays but so far, it's all been a variation of the same recipe. So, rather than mastering the art of French Cooking, I've only mastered the art of a french recipe. Helluva lot of fun to cook, though.

William how is your mac and cheese made? I had no idea growing up there was so many different ways to make it. I make in with Macaroni, shredded Colby cheese, a little milk, butter and salt and pepper. It isn't a really creamy M&C but nothing is better when you hit a pocket of hot colby cheese.

ok here are some I know are good, dunno if the recipes in this site are exactly the way it's done here because i've never done this one:
Carne de Porco à Alentejana (Pork with Clams, Alentejana style)
My mom usually does it with small cubes of baked potatoes which soak up a lot of the sauce when mixed and taste really good :)
Here's a favorite of mine:
Açorda de mariscos (i found translations calling it "sea food soup" but it's not really a soup :))
Portuguese love to eat cod and there are literally thousands of ways to cook it here, i'm trying to find some of my favorite recipes. If i can't find them i'll try to write them here :]
I should warn that most portuguese food doesn't look really attractive like from a fancy restaurante, but it tastes really good :)
And for desserts i'll also have to search for recipes but i did find this funny and interesting article!
