''Goiabada'' (:goja'badɐ) (from ''goiaba'', ''guava'') is a popular dessert throughout the Portuguese-speaking countries of the world, dating back to the colonial days in Brazil, where guavas were used as a substitute for the quinces used to make ''marmelada'' (quince cheese). An abundance of sugar and slave labour were crucial for its confection, in large cauldrons cooking over a slow fire. It is a conserve made of guava and sugar. It is still commonly made at home for family use or by home industry outlets (traditional recipes) or as processed food. It is known as guava paste or guava cheese throughout the English-speaking Americas, especially the Caribbean and ''pasta de guayaba'' or ''guayabate'' in Spanish-speaking Americas. It is commercially available, most often packaged in flat, metal cans. It is called Perad in Goa, an old Portuguese colony. In Brazil, ''goiabada'' is usually eaten with Minas cheese. This combination is referred to as "Romeo and Juliet." It is particularly popular spread on toast at breakfast, or served hot with cheese inside an ''empada'' pastry, as a kind of miniature pie. In Portugal, it is used as the filling of the popular ''bolo de rosas'' (rose cake) in which a layer of pastry is covered with ''goiabada'', then rolled and cut into pieces that resemble roses. This same cake is called ''rocambole'' in Brazil, and also uses a layer of pastry covered with ''goiabada'', then rolled and served, as a Swiss roll. Another popular dessert is the bolo de rolo. The many different kinds of ''goiabada'' depend on the type of guava, and with slightly different textures and flavors. In Brazil, the most widely accepted to be the best (for "Romeo and Juliet") is called ''goiabada cascão'' (with fragments of guava in the paste). ==See also== * Guava jelly * Dulce de membrillo * List of Brazilian sweets and desserts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Goiabada」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
