00:01
We holidays are finally here.
00:04
We're here and we have our native dishes for dessert.
00:08
My dessert is, it is a Puerto Rican dessert.
00:11
It's like a custard.
00:12
It has coconut milk, some cinnamon, some vanilla and corn
00:17
That's like what's like holding it together.
00:18
It's like the easiest thing to make.
00:23
My mom and I would make every end of the year.
00:27
They're all delicious.
00:28
They all look different.
00:28
Everyone has a different vanilla version.
00:30
This is guava and cheese.
00:33
This was our go to dessert for Christmas Eve.
00:35
We always had like different cakes and this and this was my
00:40
favorite and you can eat it with any kind of cheese, but I preferred
00:45
Well, this is so, so it consists of rum.
00:50
I always associate this with Christmas.
00:54
And I remember my grandma would always make a little piece
00:57
So I'm half Colombian, half Peruvian.
00:59
And this is, and that's on my Peruvian side.
01:03
How I like to explain.
01:04
This is, it's basically like a fancy fried doughnut with like
01:08
delicious syrup, like nice and hot, delicious.
01:11
So this is a, when they hear like they think like it's a tortilla
01:15
with the cheese, but it's actually this beautiful Scrump
01:18
cheese piece of bread.
01:19
People have it at all times of day.
01:21
But like in my family we'd be having this like, after meal.
01:31
Yeah, it smells like pure rum.
01:35
But are you gonna do it?
01:42
So it's like half the dessert because it's sweet.
01:48
It's like a big corn so good.
01:52
It's really crunchy but it's also like just soft enough.
01:55
Well, this guava and cream cheese is so good.
01:58
It's just, it's so comforting.
02:00
It just reminds me of home.
02:01
This is so freaking good.
02:04
Uh They really nail the Puerto Ricans is such a strong word
02:08
I feel like it's something like crunchy or something spicy
02:10
but it's not, it's just a nice little pudding like it has good
02:13
Honestly, if you eat the whole thing, I feel like you're gonna
02:17
be a little, that's why my love this so much.
02:20
I wanna try something.
02:24
You gonna combine this, you wanna Franken something?
02:27
I wanna see what our babies are gonna look like.
02:30
Actually really good.
02:32
I don't think they would go well together.
02:34
So maybe it will go well together.
02:36
Oh, I'd make the parties.
02:41
I think the we're still means that we really like each other's
02:44
dishes this is really good.
02:46
So if you like rum and you like rum cake, you have to try this
02:50
because it's on a whole another level.
02:52
I would definitely eat this again.
02:54
And it's just something that I feel like it's so comforting
02:57
We were told to stop.
02:59
Our can really stop right now.
03:00
You know, when Latinos unite things, beautiful things come
03:04
That's honestly the takeaway point here.
