About Folhado de alheira
Folhado de Alheira is a savory pastry originating from Portugal, blending rich, traditional flavors with modern convenience. At its core, this dish features alheira, a distinctive Portuguese sausage made from bread and seasoned with meats like chicken or game, garlic, and spices. The alheira is encased in flaky puff pastry, which adds a crispy, buttery texture to the dish. While Folhado de Alheira is celebrated for its satisfying taste and cultural significance, it is high in calories and fats due to the sausage and pastry. However, alheira stands out for its protein content and historical innovation, having originally been crafted as a meat alternative in Jewish communities during medieval times. Pairing it with a fresh salad or lighter sides can help balance its richness, making it a delicious treat when enjoyed in moderation within a balanced diet.
