Goiabada

Hello there! Do you like eating sweet things? If you do, you might love goiabada! Goiabada is a very popular sweet treat in Brazil made from guava fruit and lots of sugar.

So first, let's talk about guava. Guava is a tropical fruit that grows on a tree. It's usually round or pear-shaped and can be yellow, green, or pink inside. Guava is very sweet and juicy, and people can eat it just like that, or use it in lots of recipes. In goiabada, guava is the main ingredient.

Now, let's talk about sugar. You might know that sugar is a very sweet ingredient that we add to many recipes to make them taste good. In goiabada, we use lots of sugar to complement the sweetness of the guava.

To make goiabada, we start by cooking the guava fruit in water until it's soft. Then, we add lots of sugar and continue cooking until the mixture thickens and turns into a thick paste. This paste is then poured into molds and allowed to cool and harden.

The final result is a block of goiabada that is sweet, sticky, and oh so delicious! People in Brazil love to eat goiabada as a dessert or snack, either by itself or with cheese. Yes, you read that right - some people like to eat goiabada with cheese! This might sound weird, but many people think it's a great combination.

So there you have it, goiabada is a sweet treat made from guava fruit and lots of sugar, cooked until it becomes a thick paste. It's a popular dessert in Brazil and can be eaten on its own or with cheese. Yummy!
