Description

This pumpkin sweet is the most traditional jam in Portugal and one of the most consumed by the Portuguese. A delicate mixture of pumpkin and orange from the Algarve, rosemary honey and eucalyptus honey, cinnamon and almonds, make this sweet unique, with a flavor that reminds us of homemade sweets from our grandparents' time. If you want to taste something typically Portuguese, you have to try this pumpkin and orange jam.

Origin of raw materials

Origin of raw materials

The rosemary and eucalyptus honey, more aromatic than other honeys, has a light brown tone and a more open aroma and palate.

Originating in North and Central America, where it is still one of the mainstays of food, the pumpkin belongs to the same family as the melon and watermelon (cucurbits). The shape of the pumpkin is variable, but it is usually ovoid or oblong. The rind is usually orange, but it can have other colors depending on the species. The bright orange color of pumpkin contains a high content of carotenes, particularly beta-carotene, with antioxidant action. Beta carotene is then converted into vitamin A in the body.
