Quindim is a popular Brazilian baked dessert. This eggy custard gets its bright yellow color from the number of egg yolks used to make it.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Mix sugar, coconut, and butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until well combined. Add egg yolks and egg white; beat until well combined. Pour mixture into a 9-inch pie plate.

Place the pie plate into a large roasting pan; pour enough boiling water into the bottom of the roasting pan to reach about halfway up the side of the pie plate.

Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and bake until custard is golden brown on top, about 30 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately or refrigerate until serving.

In just half an hour, you can prepare delicious shrimp in a creamy sauce. You'll need cream for this. It's best to choose a higher fat content. Cream with a higher percentage of fat has a more pronounced creamy taste and makes the sauce thicker. The finished shrimp can be served either with or without a side dish. Either way, it will be delicious.

This sweet and sour, moderately spicy pepper sauce, thanks to pectin, transforms into a thick and almost transparent jelly as it cools in the jar. To achieve a vibrant and beautiful color, use bell peppers of various shades. You can adjust the sauce's spiciness by reducing the amount of jalapeño or omitting it entirely, or conversely, by adding chili or another hot pepper. The sauce cooks for only 1 minute after boiling, keeping the small pieces of pepper slightly crunchy.
