Cabeça de galo

Despite its name, which translates to rooster’s head, cabeça de galo doesn’t contain any meat. It is a nourishing soup with a thick texture, made with a combination of manioc flour, eggs, water, and vegetables such as onions, garlic, tomatoes, and bell peppers. This delicacy is typically seasoned with salt, pepper, and annatto, while coriander is used as a garnish after the soup has been cooked. In Brazil, it is well known as a great hangover cure, so it is often consumed after a night of heavy drinking.
