Lovely Portuguese ceramics shop at Lisbon’s fleamarket: ‘Armazém das Caldas’

Lisbon’s unique Aqueduct (1731, 65 m tall), serial killer Alves & exhibition Frida Kahlo
Really worth a visit!
Water was in scarce supply even for Lisbon’s earliest inhabitants. In 1731 Portugal’s King João V (John V) decided to build an aqueduct (Aqueduto das Águas Livres, ‘free waters’). The project was paid by a special sales tax on beef, olive oil, wine and other products.
Aqueduct Lisbon (Aqueduto das Águas Livres), October 2022
Magnificent construction & misunderstandings
The magnificent construction caused constant misunderstandings between the royal power, engineers, architects and municipal institutions; abusive clerical interference found its way into the fray.
Aqueduct Lisbon (Aqueduto das Águas Livres, October 2022
Water Museum
Today, what the Portuguese think of as the Lisbon Aqueduct is that gigantic set or arches spanning the Alcântara valley, ending at the Mãe d’Água das Amoreiras Reservoir (Water Museum) of Amoreiras..
View from the Aqueduct Lisbon, October 2022
The main course of the aqueduct covers 18 km, but the whole network of canals extends through nearly 58 km. Its source is known as Águas Livres and is located in Caneças.
Aqueduct Lisbon (Aqueduto das Águas Livres, October 2022
important sources of water supply
The aqueduct consist of a complex series of underground galleries, arches and skylights linked to the visible principal body, known as the General Aqueduct. These are scattered all over the city, giving rise to numerous fonts which, in times gone by, were important sources of water supply for the city.
Entrance Water Museum Lisbon, Calçada da Quintinha, 6, Lisboa
Concluded in 1834 (although it began to supply water to Lisbon in 1748), displays visible Gothic influences in a period dominated by the Baroque style.

After the earthquake of 1755, architect Custódio Vieira was granted pardon for the profligacy for which he had been accused owing to the amount of iron he used to strengthen the arch’s structure, for, despite being located on a seismic faultline, it had resisted the quake.

Diogo Alves, the ‘Aqueduct serial killer’

Portugal’s long history with codfish & recipe favorite Bacalhau á Gomes de Sá
The Portuguese have a very long history with codfish: shortly after Columbus (about 500 years ago) ‘discovered’ America, the Portuguese were fishing for cod (bacalhau) near NewFoundland. They were the first Europeans to do so. The nickname of bacalhau is ‘fiel amigo’ (faithful friend).

365 different ways to prepare codfish
When you stay in Lisbon or in the wonderful country Portugal, a must-try is bacalhau (dried and salted cod). The Portuguese adore it and it’s said that they know at least 365 different ways to cook it…one for each day of the year!
Lisbon luxury food shop Manteigaria Silva , Rua D. Antao de Almada 1 Lisbon
The smell of dried and salted bacalhau is odd and penetrating……pfffffff… but the taste is absolutely delicious when cooked!
Bacaolada, traditional Portuguese bacalhau dish.
Bacalhau deserves a good wine: green (Vinho Verde) or mature wines, from Alentejo, Dão or Douro.
History
For at least 500 years ago the Portuguese learned how to salt cod at sea and sun-dry it. It keeps for many months this way without refrigeration. And then it requires being soaked for 24 hours in changes of water before being used to prepare a dish. The soaking reconstitutes the fish and gets rid of the excessive salt also.
Lisbon luxury food shop Manteigaria Silva , Rua D. Antao de Almada 1 Lisbon
Even today, where refrigeration isn’t a problem, the Portuguese have not lost their love for bacalhau. Dishes based on this main ingredient are sure to be a part of most holiday and other celebrations.
Jose Maria & Paula & bacalhau à Brás, a very popular dish
One of the reasons for the popularity of bacalhau in Portugal and other catholic countries, was because of the many days on which the Church forbade the eating of meat.
Bacalhau á Gomes de Sá, cooked in a casserole with thinly sliced potatoes and onions, garnished with hard-boiled eggs and black olives.
This recipe was invented by Jose Luis Gomes de Sá Jr., the son of a rich nineteenth century merchant (apparently he dealt in cod) in Porto. The family fortune dwindled and the son had to find a job at the famous restaurant Lisbonense in downtown Porto. It was there that he created the now well known recipe.
Besides: Pastéis de Bacalhau (codfish pastry), croquetes.
A delicacy and a good idea with a cold glass of Portuguese white wine or beer on tap(imperial)!
