BRAZILIAN CHRISTMAS TURKEY
I think this is one of the best turkey breasts I've ever had; it's reportedly part of the Ceia de Natal, or Brazilian Christmas turkey feast. Although a whole turkey is actually used, I just used a turkey breast, about 8 lbs., and used light Puerto Rican rum instead of the traditional Cachaca. It's one of those thing where you keep sneaking into the refrigerator for one more piece... prep time includes marinating overnight.

XMAS TURKEY - CEIA DE NATAL
There's another Brazilian Christmas Turkey recipe here using rum, but I thought this traditional version was interesting since it calls for champagne. From a Christian bulletin board site.

Steps:
- Rub the turkey inside and out with a paste made with the salt, pepper, garlic, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Place the turkey in a non-reactive pan and pour on olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, champagne, and water. Add bay leaves, onions, scallions, and parsley. Cover loosely with a large piece of plastic and place in the refrigerator for 24 hours, occasionally dousing the turkey with the liquid.
- Remove turkey from marinade and rub it well inside and out with butter. Fill the turkey with dressing if desired, and close the opening with skewers. Reserve marinade for basting. Place turkey in a roasting pan. Crisscross bacon strips on top of turkey breast for flavor and decoration.
- Pour some of the marinade over the turkey. Cover turkey loosely with aluminum foil and roast the turkey in a 325-F degree oven until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh attains 180-F degrees.
- While it's roasting, make sure to baste the turkey at regular intervals with the remaining marinade, about every half-hour. Remove the foil for the final 20 minutes of roasting to crisp the skin and turn it a rich golden brown. Slice and serve!

5/5 (1)Published 2022-01-25Category Recipe Roundup
- Brazilian Chocolate Pavê (Chocolate Trifle) This dessert is kind of a hybrid tiramisu-trifle made using layers of biscuits or cake with creamy condensed milk and often brandy.
- Rabanadas (Brazilian French Toast) I’m a massive fan of French toast, so I had to try this right away. It’s what you’ll expect in terms of flavor, but it’s on a whole other level with a crunchy cinnamon-sugar coating.
- Brazilian Farofa. Farofa is a unique Brazilian side dish that you’ll see at almost every dinner table. Made using grated, pressed, and toasted yuca, it soaks up the flavor of the ingredients added to the pan.
- Brazilian Potato Salad. Potato salad is pretty standard during the summer months, but I think it’s too good not to have with this year’s Christmas dinner.
- Cranberry, Pistachio, and White Chocolate Panettone. Panettone is one of those festive treats you only really see around the holidays. They’re big, fluffy, and loaded with yummy treats, like candied oranges and nuts.
- Salpicão de Frango (Brazilian Chicken Salad) This classic Brazilian chicken salad is similar to California chicken salad in that it’s rich and creamy with a sweet element.
- Ham With Pineapple Sauce. If your family is team-turkey, you can go ahead and skip to the following recipe. But if you’re on the hunt for something different, try this incredibly flavorful roasted ham.
- Brazilian Christmas Rice. Believe it or not, this festive and fun Christmas rice recipe is made with Champagne. It adds a lovely light sweetness and terrific depth of flavor.
- Brazilian Carrot Cake. Unlike typical carrot cake that’s full of grated carrots, this Brazilian classic uses blended carrots. They’ll give the cake a delightful yellow hue and lovely light sweetness.
- Bem Casados (Brazilian Wedding Cookies) Dulce de leche is one of the most popular sweet ingredients in South America, and you’ll see it used in plenty of recipes.
16 POPULAR BRAZILIAN CHRISTMAS FOODS - CHEF'S PENCIL
From chefspencil.com
- Peru Natalino (Christmas Turkey) Turkey might not be a Brazilian creation, for it is a non-native bird. Nevertheless, the tradition of serving a highly seasoned turkey as the main dish for Christmas celebrations runs deep in Brazilian culture, thanks to influence from the American thanksgiving celebration.
- Leitão a Pururuca (Pururuca Pig) A traditional dish that was served during the first Christmas celebration in colonial times, some hundreds of years ago.
- Arroz Natalino – Christmas Rice. In Brazil you can’t call a meal a dinner if there is no rice. It is easy to cook, cheap, delicious, and nutritious. Usually it is seasoned with olive oil, garlic, onions, and a bit of salt.
- Tender (Christmas Ham) Next we have smoked pork leg, a really popular Christmas dish, often served as a starter. This variety usually features slightly darker meat and thicker skin.
- Salpicão. Salpicão is a flavor-packed salad dish -a mixture of many fruits, vegetables, and peppers with the shredded meat of poultry of choice (usually turkey) drenched in mayonnaise.
- Rabanada. These might look harmless if you never had them before, but the Brazilian rabanada (originally a traditional Portuguese recipe), is an absolute calory bomb!
- Musse de Maracujá (Passion Fruit Mousse) The musse de maracujá has a really unique appearance. Ideally served ice cold, there’s no better choice if you want a refreshing dessert when the heat of the Christmas summer starts getting a bit too much.
- Farofa de Natal. Farofa is basically a baked dish featuring copious amount of butter, onions, and optionally eggs, fried bananas, or some kind of meat like bacon, Brazilian sausages, or jerked beef.
- Pavê. If turkey is the main dish of Brazilian Christmas, pavê is the main dessert. It is a generous pielike creation, made of several layers of biscuits with bricks of sweet heaven in between!
- Torta Alemã (German Pie) While less popular than pavê, torta Alemã is loved by most, and it is always good news when the host is serving it. Despite the German monicker, the recipe is actually Brazilian.
