Elza Beling

From a very young age, the best place in the house was always the kitchen. My great-grandmother Maria (in memoriam), born in the southern swamp, mastered the preparation of any food extracted from the sea and passed on her knowledge to my mother Lauricy (in memoriam). The recipe that I present to you came about in the 1970s/1980s, because my father Wilson (in memoriam) fished for grouper on the coast of the Ponta do Papagaio resort. When my brother-in-law Alceu Pereira de S. Thiago (in memoriam) brought me from Espírito Santo, a pan and a can with holes to strain the annatto oil, it became more original.
