Chef Marcelo Corrêa Bastos created this recipe as part of the Brazil Flavors events.

The third box of ingredients from S.Pellegrino Brazil Flavors was sent by chef Rafa Costa e Silva, from Lasai, in Rio de Janeiro (# 24 in Latin America's 50 Best Restaurants) to chef Marcelo Corrêa Bastos from traditional Brazilian food restaurant Jiquitaia (São Paulo). Marcelo received ingredients made by chef Rafa at Lasai and transformed them into a Jerusalem artichoke chowder with sarnambi, served only to special guests at the dinner on 23 October.
