Agricultural activity in Boticas has a strong rural character, preserving traditions, which allows maintaining the quality and genuineness of regional products. As proof of this quality, there has been the certification and protection of origin of various traditional products harvested or produced, helping to ensure their authenticity and favouring the development of a local development strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gastronomic offer is vast and its quality recognised. It is immediately associated with Barros\u00e3 veal, Barroso stew and feijoada, kid goat, stuffed trout, \u2018roj\u00f5es no pote\u2019, rib and chorizo rice, wine and garlic ribs, Barroso broth, various types of smoked meats, ham and also bread, meatballs, folar, \u2018vinho dos mortos\u2019 (wine of the dead) and Barroso honey.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An emblematic reference of Portuguese cattle farming, Carne Barros\u00e3 - Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) - fills the tables of the best restaurants and delights those who taste it. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The animals are kept using traditional methods. In the morning they go out into the fields where they graze freely. In the summer, they are rounded up at the hottest times and return to the pasture in the evening. The natural pastures, the grooming rituals and the dedication of the shepherds transfer the best that Barroso has to the meat.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boticas is home to a huge variety of smoked products that are certified or in the process of being certified. These products have long been part of the regional diet, and were initially produced in response to the difficulties of preserving and storing meat. These products are present in countless traditional dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
