K-JADA: A MODERN TAKE ON A CLASSIC PORTUGUESE PASTRY
DISCOVER THE QUEIJADA
The queijada (pronounced ‘Kay-Jah-Duh’) is a traditional Portuguese pastry with a rich history dating back to 1590 when it was considered valuable enough to be used as payment on ships. Each region of Portugal has added its unique twist to this delicacy, making it a true reflection of the country’s seafaring past and culinary diversity.
