October 5: Declare Freedom From Dull Flavors on the Proclamation of Portuguese Republic
Celebrate an important development in Portuguese culture! While under a constitutional monarchy, Portugal suffered British colonial interests, the expensive tastes of the royal family, repressive church policies, and an overall inability to adapt to modern times. When the Republican Party started a revolt, the soldiers refused to fight against the rebels. The government was declared a republic and the royal family faced exile.
This new era started Portugal on a new path of cultural and economic growth. Take time this day to commemorate this day with new online food recipes featuring Portuguese inspiration. Dishfolio food photographers found dishes featuring stylish combinations and flavorful quick and easy dinner ideas. Traditions take from many Mediterranean influences and feature chili peppers along with the sweeter flavors of cinnamon, vanilla, and saffron. This is a cuisine that will appeal to many!
