Acarajé


Acarajé is a delicious sandwich type snack typical of the Brasilian state of Bahia. One thing you need to aware of when trying it is that Bahian hot sauce is very strong, but also very tasty. The bun for this sandwich is fried in palm oil, and the dough is made from peeled black-eyed peas. Inside it has shrimp (they often aren’t peeled) and a few different pastes. This is great snack or you can eat a couple for dinner. This dish embodies the African roots in this part of Brasil and boy does it taste awesome!
