Marmelada is a sweet, tangy fruit preserve traditionally made from quince, though modern variations may include other fruits like apples or citrus. Originating in Portugal, this dense, jelly-like spread has become popular in Mediterranean and European cuisines. Marmelada is typically crafted by simmering fruit pulp with sugar and water until it thickens naturally. Rich in natural fruit fiber and antioxidants, marmelada retains some nutritional benefits of the fruit, such as vitamin C and potassium. However, its high sugar content makes it energy-dense, so it should be consumed in moderation, especially for those monitoring blood sugar levels. Popular as a topping on bread or paired with cheese, marmelada offers a flavorful way to enjoy fruit preserves while being mindful of portion sizes.
