Dear Dr Cruz,
Bingo, I think you are absolutely right about this. I
think the "butlers" working on ships might have
borrowed this recipe, rather than it being a
Portuguese dish.
I do like the Bardez "bol" bread though. It's a bardez
tradition to ask for "bol" bread as part of the bridal
trousseau. We Shastikars settle for "godrej" cupboards
:))
