Othello on the big screen: Irene Jacob and Lawrence Fishburne

I just woke up desperate for some Romeo & Juliet. Why do I need a sugar boost, and Romeo & Juliet, I have no idea. If you don't have a clue about what I am talking about, have a look on the pic below:

Romeo & Juliet are simply put: a slice of guyava paste and a slice of white cheese, typical from Brazil countryside. If you ever visit Brazil or a Brazilian restaurant in your country, do not forget to check wheter this is on the menu. It goes very well with coffee (Iago ?). In Amsterdam you can find "Goiabada" in Finalmente Brasil shop. I have to stock some more of it !

But because Brazilians are a creative people in the kitchen, they experiment several other ways of playing with the guayva paste and the white cheese. One interesting variation of Romeo & Juliet above: a condensed milk pudding with a thick guayava syrup. Below: a cheese souffle with hot guayava sauce.

Below: Romeo & Juliet crepe. It is stuffed with cheese and... yep, you guessed it right: topped with guayava sauce.

Oh, well... I guess by now you can find what the main ingredients of the Romeo & Juliet ice cream above are...

Being impossible to find some guyava paste ad Minas cheese in my neighbourhood (come on, I have been living the last decade in Holland, remember ?) I decided to please myself with a toast topped with plum jelly and a slice of Dutch goat cheese.

It is not exactly a Romeo & Juliet but... It tastes wonderful ! Yes, it does !
(Creativty is indeed the mother of all inventions.)
And so Othello & Desdemona were re-created and re-united in the kitchen paradise.

Cara de pau minha ? Pode ser.
Ah, eu não sou do tipo que fica com desejo e não faz nada a respeito !
