Origin of raw materials
Bravo de Esmolfe Apple (PDO) is an apple with unique characteristics, extremely aromatic and juicy, sweet and at the same time acidic. It has an oblong-conical shape, white pulp and its whitish skin and sometimes has pink spots. This regional variety, known since the 19th century. XVIII, is originally from the village of Esmolfe (Penalva do Castelo, Portugal) and was obtained from a tree planted from a seed. As its fruits are very popular, grafts were obtained that spread this variety to several fruit production areas, especially in the Beira Alta region and in part of Cova da Beira.
Depending on the season of production, figs are called lampos (May and June) and vintage (July/September) . It is a fruit with well-marked organoleptic characteristics, with great nutritional qualities, being rich in vitamins B and C and mineral salts (especially calcium, phosphorus and potassium). Thin, colorful and shiny rind, high juice content, sweetness and unique organoleptic characteristics are some of the characteristics of orange from Algarve.
Passion fruit belongs to the Passiflora family and grows on climbing plants. Passion fruit has a leathery, yellowish-green rind. Its gelatinous pulp is orange or yellowish and contains edible black seeds. In South America, Catholic missionaries called it the “fruit of passion”. They considered that the flowers of the plant resembled the crown of thorns placed on the head of Christ.
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 the pumpkin contains a high content of carotenes, particularly beta-carotene, with antioxidant action. Beta carotene is then converted into vitamin A in the body.
Almonds - Trás-os-Montes Region, Portugal.
Strawberries are a delicious way to protect your body. They are rich in antioxidants and therefore strengthen the body's defenses and prevent cardiovascular diseases. They also have high levels of water and potassium which have a mild diuretic effect.
Port wine, originating in the Douro region (Portugal), is aged in wood, and during its aging it gains greater aromatic complexity, thus showing the aromas of dried fruits, such as walnuts or almonds, and acquiring aromas of wood, coffee, chocolate and honey.
The Chilli, of intense red color, is a spice with a pungent flavor. The spiciness of the seeds causes a burning sensation triggered by the spiciness. Responsible for releasing substances such as endorphins, produced by the brain and which give a feeling of well-being. They also increase heart rate and body temperature, which is why it is considered one of the most aphrodisiac ingredients.
Blueberries grow in clusters and range in size from the equivalent of a small pea to the equivalent of a marble. They have an intense color that ranges from blue, brown and black-purple and include soft gray-white flowers that cover the surface of the berries and serve as a protective layer. The skin surrounds a semi-transparent integument, which surrounds small seeds.
Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) is a lively plant, cultivated or sub spontaneous in our country, which can grow up to 80 cm in height and 50 cm in diameter. It was introduced a long time ago in Europe, from Western Asia, and it is common to find it close to houses, on paths, hedges, slopes, even next to vineyards. Also known as melissa or citronella minor, its leaves, when manipulated, release a strong and pleasant aroma of sweet lemon. Despite being resistant to the cold, its aerial part can even disappear completely during the winter.
