It is perfect to accompany red meat due not only to its flavor but also to its sharp acidity.

The boy created the combination that was successful among his friends and it didn't take long to spread the news across the country.

The traditional Bauru consists of cheese melted in bain-marie, tomato, pickled cucumber and roast beef on bread.

1. cheddar

Cheddar Village, located in the west of England, was the reason for choosing the name of the preferred cheese to accompany Brazilian snacks.

The legitimate recipe for cheddar cheese is made with raw cow's milk and stands out from traditional cheeses for its yellowish color and incredible flavor.

1. Cognac

A few kilometers from Paris, France, the Cognac region became famous for being the birthplace of the distillate, made from the fermentation of wine.

Cognac or brandy, as the spirit is commonly called, can be obtained from the fermentation of other fruits and enjoyed after meals to aid digestion.
