Brazil<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n

Feijoada is Brazil’s beloved black bean stew, traditionally simmered with smoky pork and served with rice, oranges, collard greens, and farofa. It is hearty, deeply savory, and built for sharing around a table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This version keeps the spirit of the classic while using supermarket-friendly ingredients: black beans, pork shoulder, smoked sausage, bacon, aromatics, bay leaves, and a slow simmer until the broth turns glossy and rich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the best texture, cook the stew gently after the beans soften. A low simmer helps the pork become tender while some beans break down enough to thicken the pot naturally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to serve with Feijoada<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Serve feijoada with steamed white rice, orange wedges, sauteed collard greens, and farofa. The oranges brighten the rich stew, while the greens and toasted cassava flour add freshness and crunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recipe notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Soaking the beans overnight shortens the cooking time and helps them cook evenly, but a quick soak also works. If the stew gets too thick before the pork is tender, add hot water or low-sodium broth a little at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n
