“Romeo and Juliet” is one of William Shakespeare's most famous plays. Who does not know this tragic story about the intense love between two teenagers? This play has become the model for many relationships because it is a symbol of eternal love - a love that not even death can destroy.
But... that's not exactly the story we want to tell you. We want to talk about the best wedding of all: the one with marmalade and cheese!
For those unfamiliar with the concept, the combination of marmalade and cheese gives rise to a dessert known as Romeo and Juliet. The marmalade represents the passionate Juliet, and the cheese represents Romeo. Just like in the famous play, the combination of these two ingredients is so good that... it will be difficult to separate them.
This is a traditional dessert originating in Brazil, in the colonial period, which can be eaten in the most varied forms, from tarts to ice creams and jams. In the original version, it was presented in the form of cheese with guava paste (typical fruit of that country). Some people also believe that this dessert was invented by Bulgarians.
This dessert is considered the perfect marriage between sweet and salty and is very popular in Portugal.
So, have you ever heard the story of Romeo and Juliet? If you feel like having a slice of cheese with marmalade, we can provide it!
