What kind of food should I buy, and how to cook it?

Last weekend, Ramon gave me a ride to the Market (check it on the video). I would never thought that my exchange could help teach me survival techniques. Yes, it is true! When I go to the market, the first thought that comes to my mind is: what should I buy and how many of each product? Oh Gosh!!! There are some exclusive products that I will find only in Brazil, like couscous’ cornflour and a delicious chocolate biscuit called “Treloso”. On Sunday I had a stressful experience, I had been cooking rice, beans and fried chicken. The rice was the easiest because I followed the step-by-step instructions on the back of the gab. My problems were with the beans and slicing the vegetables. It took me the whole afternoon to do it! As you see, I am not having an easy life in Trinidad…
