Bacalhau a Braga · Braga
The Braga preparation of salt cod: thick fillets fried with onion rings, green pepper and olive oil, served with home-fried potatoes and olives. Distinct from Lisbon and Porto versions by its pepper and onion volume.
Bacalhau a Braga is one of the 365 ways of cooking bacalhau documented across Portugal, but it holds a specific Minho character. The thick fried onion rings and green peppers distinguish it from the northern a Ze do Pipo or the southern Gomes de Sa preparations. The dish crystallised as a Braga signature at family restaurants in the mid-20th century; Restaurante Tia Isabel and Arcoense are its two canonical addresses. Cozinha da Se near the cathedral has kept the preparation on its menu since the 1990s without modification.
