Paraguaya Extra: An Exceptionally Sweet and Nutritious Fruit

The Paraguaya extra, also known as flat peach or Saturn peach, is a variety of peach that stands out for its flattened shape and intensely sweet flavor. It belongs to the Rosaceae family, along with peaches, nectarines, and plums. Originating from China, the Paraguaya has been cultivated for centuries and has gained popularity worldwide due to its uniqueness and delicious flavor profile.

Biological Characteristics and Varieties

The Paraguaya is a natural mutation of the peach, characterized by its flat shape and velvety skin. The flesh of the Paraguaya can be either white or yellow, with both varieties being equally sweet and juicy. The stone of the Paraguaya is smaller than that of the common peach, making it even more attractive for consumption. This fruit is rich in vitamins A and C and contains minerals such as potassium and magnesium, contributing to its high nutritional value.

There are several varieties of Paraguaya extra, each adapted to different climates and regions. Some of the most well-known include the 'Saturn,' popular for its white flesh and extreme sweetness, and the 'UFO,' which has a firm texture and a highly aromatic flavor. The production of Paraguayas is concentrated in regions with temperate climates, particularly in Spain, Italy, and the United States.

History and Origin of the Paraguaya

The origin of the Paraguaya dates back to ancient China, like the peach. This fruit was brought to Europe during the Middle Ages, where it was cultivated and adapted to different climatic conditions. In Spain, the Paraguaya has become an important crop, especially in the regions of Murcia and Catalonia, where the climate is ideal for its development.

The name 'Paraguaya' comes from its flattened appearance, resembling a pancake or "pan guayo." Over time, this fruit has been improved through the selection and crossing of varieties, achieving greater sweetness and a more intense flavor, characteristics that make it highly appreciated in today's market.

Nutritional Value and Health Benefits

The Paraguaya extra is an excellent source of essential nutrients. It is rich in antioxidants, such as vitamin C, which helps protect the body against free radicals and strengthens the immune system. Additionally, the vitamin A present in the Paraguaya is crucial for eye health and cellular regeneration. The dietary fiber contained in this fruit contributes to good digestion and helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels.

Potassium, another key mineral found in the Paraguaya, is essential for cardiovascular health, helping to regulate blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease. The low-calorie content of the Paraguaya, combined with its high water content, makes it an ideal food for healthy diets and weight control.

Culinary Uses of the Paraguaya Extra

The Paraguaya extra is highly versatile in the kitchen. It can be enjoyed fresh, alone, or paired with other ingredients in fruit salads or yogurt mixes. Its sweet and juicy flavor makes it an excellent complement to desserts such as tarts, crumbles, and ice cream. Additionally, the Paraguaya is ideal for making jams and preserves, thanks to its high natural pectin content.

In savory dishes, the Paraguaya extra can be used in salads with goat cheese, walnuts, and arugula, providing a sweet and refreshing contrast. It is also a perfect accompaniment to grilled meats, especially when combined with fresh herbs such as thyme or mint.
