Description

Cooked in the natural boilers of Furnas lake is one of the most emblematic dishes of the island. The various ingredients are put in a pot which is buried in the ground next to the boiler, taking about five hours to be cooked by the heat emanating from natural volcanic activity. Tasting the "Cozido" is an essential experience to anyone visiting the island.
