Portuguese bean stew

Portuguese bean stew (often called Feijoada) is a hearty, rustic dish featuring beans, various meats (often pork, chorizo, and sometimes beef), and aromatic vegetables cooked slowly to develop deep, savory flavors. The dish's earthy bean base and savory meat components create a rich umami foundation that pairs beautifully with Portuguese wines that offer good acidity to cut through the richness, while medium-bodied beers with malt-forward profiles complement the stew's hearty nature.
