Discover the charm of Brazil with this cooking course by chef João Alcantara
This online course, all about Brazilian cooking with the renowned chef João Alcantara, reveals the richness of Brazilian cuisine, a gastronomy full of color and flavor, which is based on a wide variety of products, due to the large size of the country. It’s also a fusion cuisine, thanks to a variety of origins, ranging from indigenous cuisine, to African and European influences, which has created a totally unique combination of flavors, colors and aromas.
This course combines João’s technique and knowledge, harmonizing the flavors of the Brazilian diet together with the influences of Mediterranean gastronomy that he acquired during his time spent in Barcelona.
You will find healthy and sophisticated recipes, culminating in an explosion of flavors that will transport you to the very heart of Brazil. João loves his country, the cuisine, and the products. In this course he offers us a fresh, innovative and healthy cuisine, rich in nutrients.
One of the most recognized aspects of his work is his collaboration with high-performance athletes, including footballer Dani Alves. In addition, he takes care to make his food accessible to everyone, hence all of his recipes can be gluten-free: most do not contain any ingredients with gluten, and in the two recipes where gluten does appear, João also suggests gluten free alternatives.
