Açaí na tigela ("Açaí Bowl", "açaí in the bowl") is a Brazilian dessert from Pará and Amazonas, where the Ribeirinhos people prepare it regularly.[1][2] It is a dish made with the frozen and mashed fruit of the açaí palm, described as having an "earthy" or creamy taste.[3] Its texture is granular before blending and it has a tartness from a high acidity content, making its taste appealing.[4] It is served as a smoothie in a bowl,[5] and is commonly topped with granola and banana, and then mixed with other fruits and guaraná syrup.[6]

Regions and preparation

Although açaí na tigela is commonly consumed all over Brazil[7][3] it has become more regionalized mainly in Pará, Rio de Janeiro, Florianópolis, São Paulo, Goiás and along the northeastern coast, where it is sold in kiosks lining the beach promenade and in juice bars throughout the cities.[8]

It is common to see açaí served with fish and cassava.[3] The sweet variety, which may contain granola, banana, blueberry, strawberry, goji berry, and other fruits, as well as sugar or condensed milk, is more common in southern parts of the country.
