    Dobradinha: Brazilian caipira stewed beef intestines with beans. Really goes all the way with emphasizing the jelly texture
    Chicken hearts: we eat them by the dozen but IME gringos don’t like them much
    Chicken feet: love them plain caipira style but dim sum style is even better, especially the more spicy ones

      I had a friend turn me on to chicken hearts when I was heavy into grilling and love introducing people to them. Super easy to grill too. Season, skewer, throw them on, done. Chicken feet though??? Idk, hard for me to get behind knowing they’ve been treading through dirt their whole lives, or worse.

        Marinating the hearts with limes and herbs is super good, too.
        Yeah, feet turn a lot of people off because of the dirtiness and how messy they are to eat. Here’s more info: they are basically pure gelatinous skin with some juicy tendons, you eat them with your hands (at least in my family) to really get in there, and they taste however the broth as a whole tastes (I can’t imagine having them roasted)
