Portugal’s Most Traditional Jam
Pumpkin and Orange Jam with Rosemary and Eucalyptus Honey, Cinnamon and Almond
The Pumpkin and Orange Jam with Rosemary Honey, Eucalyptus Honey, Cinnamon, and Almond is considered the most traditional jam in Portugal, a true icon of Portuguese confectionery. Present on tables from north to south, it has crossed generations and become a symbol of sharing and hospitality, served both on festive occasions and in simple everyday moments.
This jam recalls the old kitchens, where grandmothers would slowly cook pumpkin in copper pots, filling the house with warm and sweet aromas that became part of collective memory. Each taste is a journey through time, evoking the authenticity and simplicity that define Portuguese gastronomy.
The flavor of this jam is deep and layered. The smoothness of the pumpkin is elevated by the freshness and brightness of the orange, creating a sweet and slightly citrusy base. Portuguese rosemary and eucalyptus honeys add floral and aromatic notes, more open and persistent than other types of honey, enriching the blend. Cinnamon wraps it all with its unmistakable warmth, while toasted almonds from Trás-os-Montes provide crunch, texture, and a sophisticated finish. The result is a well-balanced jam, appealing both to those who appreciate traditional flavors and those seeking more complex and refined combinations.
Versatile and authentic, it pairs beautifully with renowned Portuguese cheeses such as Serra da Estrela Cheese (PDO), Azeitão Cheese (PDO), or Beira Baixa Curd Cheese (PDO). Its balanced sweetness contrasts with the intensity of aged cheeses, creating combinations that highlight the best of each ingredient. It is also perfect as a topping for crepes, waffles, crumbles, and pancakes, or in artisanal desserts like pies, muffins, and cakes. For simpler moments, it transforms toasts, bread, and cereals into memorable experiences, celebrating tradition in everyday life.
Produced artisanally in small batches of only 40kg, this jam preserves traditional Portuguese methods, using more than 55% fruit and a reduced amount of sugar, with no additives or preservatives.
Presented in the innovative and practical tube by meia.dúzia®, internationally awarded for its originality and flavor, it guarantees freshness, hygiene, and ease of use. The packaging, made of more than 99.7% infinitely recyclable aluminum, is sustainable and environmentally friendly.
For best preservation, keep at room temperature and, once opened, store in the refrigerator, where it maintains all its qualities for longer.
More than just a jam, this pumpkin jam is an expression of Portuguese gastronomic identity, a piece of history and tradition that continues to be celebrated at the table, winning over generations with its unique and timeless flavor.
