Arroz Doce por Vania Bialli Lobo
Sweet Rice – Food Safaris

by Vania Bialli Lobo – in reference to Affective cuisine

When I was little I spent the July vacation at my Grandma Elza’s house, which was in the interior of Paraná in the city of Jaguariaíva. It was a small town, a delight for those who lived in a big city. Every time I arrived at her house she made rice pudding on the wood stove, in addition to using free-range eggs – she raised her own chickens in the yard.

Wow!!! That smell of sweet made on a wood stove was delicious.

The aroma of cinnamon mixed with cloves in the rice pudding pan is for me a reminder of childhood that always refers to something wonderful. Also, it brings me that image of the delicious vacation at Grandma Elza’s house. Arroz Doce brings me this affective memory, it is a simple sweet but with a lot of aroma and flavor.
