Tacacá - Local Food

Here in Manaus we have a delicious local food called "Tacacá". The text bellow is from Wikipedia: It is made with jambu (a native variety of paracress), and tucupi (a broth made with wild manioc), cooked tapioca starch (“goma de tapioca” - manioc), as well as dried shrimps and fragrant, small yellow peppers known as “pimenta de cheiro”. It is traditionally served hot in a bowl made from an Amazonian gourd known as cuia. One of my favorites local foods.
