In Brazil Rhythms and Recipes, she explains how to make traditional Brazilian favorites such as cheese rolls, quindim (coconut egg custard) and feijoada (meat stew with black beans). She also offers more innovative dishes with a sophisticated touch which reflect the style of her restaurant cooking. The book offers delicious food which truly captures the spirit of Brazil and the diversity, color and flavors of its local ingredients.

from the publisher

When cooking, we transfer our energy over the food and that is why I consider the kitchen to be sacred place, one of unions and fellowship, where culture, knowledge and flavours are safeguarded and handed over. I find it important to use all our sense s when we cook: sight, varying colours; smell, matching aromas, taste, joining different flavours; and solution, listening to the sounds that touch and cheer our souls, rhythms that make our heart dance, liberating our creations that come from our sixth sense, our intuition. Food nourishes our bodies as much as music nourishes our souls.

Author Profile: Morena Leite and the Alchemy of Affection in Brazilian Cuisine

Morena Leite, the author of Brazil Rhythms and Recipes, is one of Brazil’s most well-known chefs but she more than just a chef. She is an artist of flavors, a passionate educator and a tireless social entrepreneur. Her work goes far beyond the kitchen — she connects people, transforms communities and plants seeds of food consciousness wherever she goes. Interviewing her I saw a sparkle in her eyes, a guiding faith behind her actions, and a clear life purpose. Morena is a unique individual — not just for her achievements or her singular name, but because she inspires generations through food made with love, technique, and intuition.
