The Portuguese immigration to Hawai’i began in earnest in 1878 when laborers from Madeira and the Azores arrived to work on sugarcane plantations. They brought with them their food and . . . the ukelele!
Ingredients:
I usually throw whatever I have around the house in it, so ingredients can be optional, and proportions are not precise. These are the items that are usually in the soup:
- 2-3 pounds Ham hocks, but can be less if you don’t want so much meat
- 1 ring of Portuguese sausage
- 1-2 cans of 15 oz tomato sauce
- 1-2 carrots diced
- 1 onion diced
- 1-2 cans of kidney beans
- 2 stalks chopped celery
- 1-2 potatoes diced
- Garlic, salt and pepper to taste
- Water to cover (about 8 Cups)
The following items are mostly optional depending on whether you like the flavor, want more vegetables, want spicier, have the ingredients, etc.
- Chopped cabbage (up to 1 head)
- 1-2 whole cloves
- 1-2 bay leaves
- Peppercorns (up to 1 tsp)
- Chopped parsley
- Uncooked macaroni
Directions:
- Simmer all ingredients except for cabbage and sausage for 1 – 2½ hrs. The meat should be falling off the ham hock.
- Add sausage and cabbage and simmer for another hour.
- Like most stews, it tastes better the next day.
