Colombian food tastings: Papayuela in Syrup with Cheese
Free
Don't miss the chance to try one of Colombia's most traditional sweets! Papayuela, also known as "mountain papaya," is a small, fragrant fruit loved in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, especially in Colombia's Santander, Boyacá and Cundinamarca regions. Slowly simmered in a syrup ("melao") of water, sugar and cinnamon, with a touch of lime and coconut milk, it turns tender and glossy. It's served cold with a slice of queso campesino, a fresh farmer's cheese that balances its sweetness. We look forward to sharing this taste of Colombian tradition with you!
