About Us
The most famous dish of Espirito Santo’s State is the “moqueca Capixaba”. Symbol of its regional cuisine and appreciated everywhere, the moqueca is known for its unique way of cooking and serving. The name “moqueca” designates exactly this way of preparation wich is using a clay pot to cook the seafood and vegetables with no addition of water. The ingredients include the fish(or other seafood), onions, tomatoes, garlic, cilantro, “urucum” and “malagueta” pepper.
The moqueca is served on the same clay pot it was cooked, with the sides of white rice and “pirao” a thick broth made from the moqueca and yucca flour.
