'Pastel de Chaves' new Protected Geographical Indication from Portugal
The Commission has approved the addition of a new product from Portugal to the register of Protected Geographical Indications (PGIs). 'Pastel de Chaves' is a half-moon shaped, thinly-layered puff pastry filled with a special preparation of minced veal.

The production method used to obtain the dough and the filling containing pieces of meat and onion bound together by the bread, is based on the know-how developed over the years by the bakers of the Municipality of Chaves. This denomination will be added to the list of over 1,200 products already protected.
