Bacalhau in a portugese supermarket.by cachaseiro -
Portugese passion.by cachaseiro
The portugese do in general love fish, but the really big passion of the portugese is codfish even if it´s not really caught in their waters, but comes from up north.
they get most of their codfish from Norway as salted and dried fish and if you walk in to a portugese supermarket you will mostly see a whole counter that has nothing but salted and dried codfish.
The portugese like to eat codfish for christmas too which shows what passion they have for this fine fish.
So if you are in Portugal then you better eat some "bacalhau" as the portugese call it, if you want to capture the spirit of the nation.
