The Algarve appears at the table with sea, almonds, figs, rice dishes, cataplanas, and very characteristic sweets. It is a region where salty and sweet reveal landscape and memory.

This page gathers Algarve recipes already published on Empório Portugal and indicates paths to deepen ingredients, techniques, and regional context.

The editorial versions respect tradition without claiming exclusivity. Adjustments may be necessary according to the ingredients found in Brazil.
