About Pastel de costela
Pastel de Costela is a savory Brazilian delicacy featuring slow-cooked beef short ribs encased in a crisp, golden pastry shell. This dish highlights the rich flavors of traditional Brazilian cuisine, blending tender, marinated rib meat with seasonings like garlic, onion, and parsley. The pastry is typically made from flour, water, and vegetable oil, creating a flaky texture when deep-fried to perfection. While the beef provides a high-protein filling, the dish is often indulgent due to its frying process, which increases fat content. Pastel de Costela is a satisfying treat, offering a robust source of iron and essential amino acids from the meat, but it’s best enjoyed in moderation, as its calorie count and saturated fats may be significant. Pairing it with a fresh salad or opting for a baked version can help balance its nutritional profile while preserving the authentic taste of this beloved Brazilian street food.
