Empório Portugal tips

  • Check the main ingredient before adding more salt.
  • Use olive oil with care: it should perfume, not dominate.
  • Serve freshly made when texture is central to the dish.

Possible substitutions outside Portugal

When a Portuguese ingredient is not available, choose a close, good-quality alternative. The substitution should preserve the intention of the dish, not turn it into something else.

Pairing

For savory dishes, consider a suitable Portuguese wine, sparkling water or lemonade. For sweets, coffee or tea works very well. Content intended for people aged 18 and over. Please drink responsibly.
