The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Balloon Vine . Though technically an herb, Indians use the leaves as the base of a few Indian dishes. Balloon Vine’s other descriptive monikers include “love in a puff,” & “heart seed vine.” Though the mature leaves are too bitter & hairy to enjoy cooked or raw, the young leaves may be used in recipes. . The taste of Balloon Vine resembles many greens with its grassy, earthy, astringent, bitter, & slightly salty taste. When finely ground in a blender or food processor, however, the taste becomes bitterer than even a bitter gourd. As a bitter green, the taste of Balloon Vine makes it too strong to use as the only ingredient, such as making it the base of a salad or green stir-fry. Rather, it accentuates existing batters & soups. . Look for vibrant green leaves with no sign of yellow or browning. When lifted, the bundle should not sag or wilt. Inspect the leaves carefully to ensure they haven’t been bruised in transit. . Rinse the bundle of leaves at least twice to ensure no dirt remains. Pat dry. As is the case with all leafy greens, do not wash until ready for consumption; otherwise, water will accelerate their spoilage. Store Balloon Vines by wrapping in a paper towel, & then keeping in the fridge. . 1) When adding to Batters, it’s best to make a Paste: Chop the leaves (stems optional), then blend with a pinch of water. The concoction should look gooey & pulpy. . 2) If adding to Rasams or Soups, finely Chop the Leaves. Some choose to sauté whole leaves first. . 3) To use as an Herb or Flavoring Agent, use whole young, tender leaves. Chop into thinner strands if desired. . 4) Substitute these greens with recipes calling for Dandelion Greens: sprinkle a few young leaves in pasta, mashed potato, & on flatbreads. .

Discard the water, & rinse the nuts. Blend the nuts, slowly adding water & maple syrup until the nuts are a whipped, creamy consistency. Place in a bowl, & fold the Cherimoya into the batter. Transfer into a piecrust & smooth the batter. Put the pie in the refrigerator & leave to set for at least 3 hours.

.

Use as Whipped Topping for Fruit Salads. Blend Sitaphals pulp with coconut milk, & leave to set in the fridge for three hours.

.

The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Citron

.

Citron is part of the citrus family, & most closely related to Buddha’s Hand. To describe a Citron, it’s as if someone took a Lemon, removed most of its juicy flesh, & filled it with white pith instead. Citrons are sometimes called Chakotra, though Moniker also depicts Pomelos. Citon’s pith is edible, but tastes cottony, fibrous, & bland.

.

With the exception of Assamese Villagers, most use Citron for its bright, zesty rind. The flavor resembles lemon with its pungent tartness. The flavor of Citron’s small amount of juice depends on the cultivar, as they vary in their ratio of sour to acidity. Some are mouth-puckeringly sour, while others are mellow but acidic. The sweetest varieties come from Corsica & Morocco.

.

1. Candy the peel & dip into chocolate for an after dinner mouth cleansing treat, Candied peels also make a lovely topping for baked goods. Fold the zest in the batters of sweet breads, muffins, pies, tarts & cheesecakes.

.

2. Boil & stew chunks of the fruit in sugar to make a marmalade or jam

.

3. As is common in Iran, make a tisane by adding the peel to tea.

.

4. Grind the citron rind with olive oil to make a balm that can be applied on wounds, sore muscles & bruises.

The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Cherry

.

India’s Cherries particularly Golden Red varieties are Tart & Sour with only a Hint of Sweetness. Deep Red Cherries have a milder, less acidic taste than their yellow counterparts. Cherry’s ratio of sour to sweet varies between cultivars. Taste is also affected by rainfall & humidity: If both of these are high before the season, the taste is not as sweet & the fruits become susceptible to brown rot.

.

Cherry’s flesh is Juicy & Pungent, with the texture resembling a grape’s. All fruits have a hard stone in the center that requires removal.

.

1. To make Cherry juice, simmer the de-pitted fruits in a shallow pan with water & sugar. Pulverizing with a potato masher or hand blender, & then strain through cheesecloth or a fine sieve once cooled.

.

2. Create a Cherry reduction sauce: bring 2 cups of red wine, 1 ½ cups of sugar, & 1 cup of dried Cherries or 3 cups of fresh Cherries to a boil. Decrease to a simmer, & then wait for the mix to reduce to a third of the original amount. Set to cool, & then transfer to a jar to the refrigerator. Use this reduction sauce atop Tofu Marinades, Ice Creams, & Salads & Desserts.

.

3. Add Cherries to Salads: De-pitted, Cherries pair well with Walnuts, Almonds, Grapes, Apricots, Apples, Spinach, Kale, Arugula, Rocket, & Red Lettuce. Use light vinaigrette instead of a heavy dressing.

.

4. Cherries are a lovely addition to Biryanis, Middle Eastern couscous, & even stuffed mushroom or stuffed pumpkin meals. The tanginess of the cherry counter balances earthy flavors found in the vegetables & grains.

.

5. Use Cherries as the base of Beverages such as cherry Limeade & Cherry Sparking Soda. Or make a Cherry Martini as a delectable upscale drink.

.

6. Fresh Cherries make a bright, lovely base for Tarts & Pies.

.

7. Add Dried Cherries to Muffins & Sweet Breads: they work well as a raisin or cranberry substitute. Cherries also make a nice addition to Chocolate Cake or Brownie Recipes.

.

8. Create Cherry Compote to enjoy the short seasoned fruits year-round: because cherry season is so short, a great way to preserve them for use year-round is through canning. Boil 1kg in 300 ml of water, & cook for 15 to 20 minutes until soft. Add ½ cup of sugar, pectin, & lemon juice, stirring until dissolved. Cook for an additional 15 minutes until the batch is syrupy. Set aside to cool once the mix has thickened, & then transfer to a jar. Place the compote atop pancakes, waffles, crepes, laddus, & rasmalai.

The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Cattley Guava Strawberry Guava

.

Compared to other Guava Types, Cattleys prefer to sink into the shadows rather than take the limelight. Despite its modesty, Cattley Guava packs a Sour, Tangy Punch Reminiscent of Cranberry & Strawberry.

.

Like its Guava Cousins, it too offers a mouthful of seeds requiring spitting. Although Indian farmers carefully nurture guavas soils, cattleys fight to grow in the underbrush & neglected soils of the countryside. Nature rewards the fruit’s perseverance, as each tree offers a bounty of fruits twice a year in India.

.

Many liken the taste of a Cattleys to Strawberries on account of their Sharp Tanginess & Pinch of Sweetness. Others say that Strawberry Guavas resemble Passion Fruit with a Hint of Spiciness. .

.

The Thin, Edible Skin tastes like the Smell of Rose Petals & when ripe, has the same heady aroma common to other Guava Types. Compared to the common guava, Strawberry Guavas have a more “Delicate” Taste, but still possess an Acidic Bite. Underripe Cattley Guavas are Astringent, Medicinal, & Possess a Menthol Flavor.

.

Like other guavas, the fruit’s juicy, translucent flesh contains seeds.The flesh nearest the skin is grainy & coarse. Near the center, the flesh is soft, sweet, pulpy &translucent. Regrettably, the seeds are also concentrated in the center of the fruit.

.

Cattley Guava Strawberry Guava

.

1. Add the de-seeded pulp to Salad Dressings by combining it with vinegar, onion, & pepper. To emulsify the dressing, add olive oil in a slow stream while whisking the mix vigorously. Pour the dressing atop a salad of baby lettuce, pineapple, mango, roasted cashews & diced green onion.

.

2. Add the pulp atop Tropical Fruit Sorbets, such coconut or pineapple flavor.

.

3. Mix the pulp & stir in Rose Water Beverages, as the flavor complements cattley guava’s skin.

.

4. Mix the puree into Fruity Cocktails such as Daiquiris & Pina Coladas. The puree works best in Icy, Slushy Beverage Recipes.

.

5.Strawberry guavas go well in Juices & Smoothies, especially with other tropical fruits like bananas & pineapple.

.

Note: Do not substitute strawberry guavas with other types of guavas, as the flavors won’t quite match.

The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Cashew Apple

.

Few in the West are familiar with cashew apple’s tangy, sweet, & astringent flavor. Even in India country famous for its rich, buttery kaju katli & creamy cashew nut korma the fruits are seldom seen. And yet, cashew apples have a vibrant history with a bright taste to match.

.

Cashew Apples have a waxy skin & a crisp, watery texture that resembles a bell pepper. However, unlike a capsicum, its flesh is fibrous & cottony: Some field workers choose to chew the fruit for its juice, & then spit out the tough, stringy flesh. It has a sweet, lightly citrusy flavor enjoyed by most who try it.

.

A few cashew apple varieties have astringent tannins that produce a chalky, starchy taste like a RAW PLANTAIN’S. Red CASHEW APPLES are more astringent than the milder, sweeter yellow fruits.

.

Cashew Apples have many uses

.

1. Make Dried Cashew Apples by cutting into slices & dehydrating. Costa Rica residents produce a much-beloved product of sun-dried, Candied Cashew Apples.

.

2. Though fresh juice may have unpalatable tannins that dry out the mouth, cooking the juice will improve the flavor & reduce the astringency. Cashew Juice is a common use for the fruit: Brazil has several cashew juice brands, & Nigeria, Benin, & Senegal are exploring production models to do the same.

.

3. Make Cashew Apple Syrup by juicing the apple. Use a ratio of 1 part sugar to 5 parts juice. Add malic acid, & then reduce the concoction in a shallow pan.

.

4. Several Countries preserve the fruit in Syrup, & then sell the product in local markets.

.

5. Create a Baked Dessert of Cashew Apples: Quarter the fruits & sauté them gently in coconut oil & toddy. Squeeze lemon juice atop the fruits if necessary. Place the concoction in a baking tray at 350F, & flip the fruit every 5 minutes until lightly brown.

.

6. Create Cashew Pickle by soaking the apple cubes in brine for 10 days, then washing in clean water. Heat oil along with mustard seeds, onion, ginger & garlic. When the mustard seeds pop, add the chunks of fruit along with chili powder, coriander, fenugreek, turmeric, & salt. Once cooled, add citric acid & acetic acid. Cover with oil & transfer to the fridge.

.

7. Make Cashew Apple Chutney by immersing the fruit in a brine solution for two days. Steam the fruit & then cool in water. Slice the fruits in segments & then cook in oil with salt, cloves, cardamom, sugar, nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, jaggery & any other desired spices.

.

8. Goans produce a special type of Cashew Apple Alcohol, known as Feni. Locals stomp the fruit to extract the juice, where it ferments in the sun. Then, the lightly fermented juice goes in a copper pot to distill until it is roughly 40 percent alcohol by volume.

.

9. When further distilled, Cashew Apples make a Sweet Liqueur.

.

10. Making Cashew Apple Powder entails de-juicing, drying, & grinding the pulp. This powder is used in a number of Baked Goods recipes including donuts, cookies & cakes. It can also be sprinkled into porridges.

The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Banana Flower

.

The Ripeness of a Banana Flower is akin to checking the Quality of a Tropical Flower like the Bromeliad: the Petals should be Firm, Slightly Waxy, & Erect when Pulled a Bit.

.

The Color should be Vibrant with Hues of Deep Red & Purple it’s a Beautiful Flower, really. If it looks Wilted, Dehydrated, Limp, & Blackening, you can probably still use it, though the Edible White Leaves inside are likely Fine.

.

The Petals should Pull Back like an Ear of Corn. Look for a Flower with a Firm & Fresh Appearance; Leaves should be marks, cuts, & should have a Tight Overlap.

.

The Taste is Crunchy, Nutty, & Starchy. It might take a Few Bites to get acquainted with the Taste, but it’s actually a nice, Nutty Flavor. If Eaten Raw, use Lemon Juice & Salt to Combat the Starch of the Flower. If you eat the Piston or the Core (the Nonedible parts), you’ll get the same taste as a very Raw Banana.

.

Remember that Weird Grainy, Chalky Feeling you get on your Tongue? That’s what happens. But the Edible Parts are akin to Raw Papaya.

.

The Banana Flower’s Health Benefits are numerous.

.

The flower’s extracts combat pathogenic bacteria growth, and may also inhibit malarial bacterial growth as well.

.

Banana Flower’s Chloroform Extracts were found to Stabilize Blood Sugar Levels, which May Help those Suffering from Diabetes.

.

The High Antioxidant content of Banana Flowers Prevents Oxidation & Inhibits Molecules from Destabilizing DNA. This Prevents Heart Diseases & Strokes.

.

The Banana Flower’s High Level of Magnesium Boosts Mood & Reduces Anxiety.

.

Some Recipes Banana Flower Chutney, Banana Flower Sukka, Banana Flower Poriyal, Banana Flower Chips, Banana Heart Stir Fry.

The Culinary Uses of Apple

.

Commercially grown apples are Sweet, Juicy & have a pleasing Grainy Texture quite similar to Drier Pear Varieties. The particular Balance of Sweetness, Granularity in Texture & Robustness in Flavor Depends on the Variety, but as a Loose Rule of Thumb, fall in 4 Major Categories: Green, Pink, Gold, & Red.

.

Green: Should be Crisp, Firm & have a Good Crunch to it; the Taste is a Mix of Sweet, Acidic & Sour. Green Apples have a Pungent Sour “Bite” not found in other Commercial Varieties, but often Bears Resemblance to the Flavor found in Wild Apples. These are Best Raw or Baked.

The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Amla

.

Amla Season is October through April, with the South enjoying the Longest Duration. Indeed, once the Monsoon Season Subsides, Amlas are Everywhere: Beverage Shops Offer Cups of the Heavily Diluted, Sugary Juice; Stall Owners sell Fresh Amlas piled atop Custard Apples on Steel Plates; & Grocery Stores Stack Amlas in heaps in their Dusty Wooden Bins.

.

If looking for the fruit during the Off-Season, other Amla Products are available. Several shops sell Pasteurized Juice, Amla Tablets & the occasional Bag of Dried Amla. Though the Tablets might be somewhat costly, Dried Amla is Inexpensive.

.

When Ripe, some are Neon-Green while others Possess a Golden, Yellowish Hue. Some become Tinged with Dusky Pink or Grow Rust Red, some are Even White.

.

Choose Fruits that are Slightly Firmer than a Green Grape. Amlas should not be Bruised or Imperfectly Shaped ideally; they are Round, Taut & Full.

.

Astringent is the best word to describe the Indian Gooseberry if ever one wanted a reminder of the difference between Sour & Astringent, one bite of an amla would explain it. The initial impression is Tangy & Bitter. Next, Astringency overwhelms the Mouth & creates a strong desire to spit it out. Amla then gets Bitter again before leaving a surprisingly, Highly Sweet After Taste. In texture, Amla Resembles a Sour Apple without the Graininess: Compact & Crisp, Hydrating, & Watery.

.

1.Make Amla Juice by adding one tablespoon of juice per one cup of water. Add sugar or honey if desired. Many choose to drink Amla Juice with a pinch of turmeric mixed into the beverage, as this Promotes Digestion. Or, make a variation on mint lemonade by adding some amla juice to the pitcher.

.

2.Create Sweet Amla Chew Candy by Cutting Segments of the fruit while boiling water & sugar into a syrupy consistency. Once cooled, add amla pieces to the syrup & leave overnight. Repeat yesterday’s process by removing the slices & add more sugar to the syrup, bringing the mixture. Once cooled, add the amla slices & set the mixture aside for 4-5 days. Dry the pieces in the sun or on very low heat in the oven. When the sugars crystalize, transfer to a container.

.

3.Amla Pickle is one of the most common uses for the fruit: Stir-Fry quartered wedges of the fruit in light oil, mixing other spices such as Fennel Seeds, Chili Powder, Turmeric, Mustard Oil, & Nigella Seed. Serve alongside Rice.

.

4.Another popular recipe is Amla Curry, made by Frying & Stewing Amla Chunks in standard Indian Spices like Turmeric, Cumin, Green Chilis, & Garam Masala.

.

5.Make Amla Muraba, a sweet preserve made by Grating the fruit & Stewing it in a syrupy concoction with Sugar, Cardamom Powder, & Saffron.

The Culinary Uses & Benefits of Ambarella

.

Ambarella Season Shines in the Fall & Winter Months the Recognition it receive is on Par with Papaya & Mango.

.

India doesn’t cultivate many Ambarellas, though a few markets in South India carry them when in season. Despite the country’s suitable growing conditions, Ambarellas are not popular here like they are in Sri Lanka & the Caribbean. Most Indian farmers have Ambarellas as shade trees for other crops, & not for their fruit.

.

Today, the fruit grows abundantly in the soils of Sri Lanka & Southern India. Other countries growing include Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Zanzibar, Gabon, Central America & the northern parts of South America as well as in certain regions of Australia.

.

Ambarellas aren’t a staple in Indian Pantries, though it’s a beloved Souring Agent in the cities along the Konkan Coast. Instead, shoppers stumble upon the fruit while going for drives or when picking up Tamarind Paste perhaps hanging in an Unsuspecting Garden with other ancient trees, or maybe it’s nestled behind a bold, colorful mango tree.

.

The best bet of finding Ambarella is coming to Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra or Goa & asking a well-established local for its whereabouts. Not only will they have a Spicy Ambarella Curry Recipe passed down to them by their great-grandmother, but they will also know which neighbors grow a tree or two in their yard.

Several Countries Utilize Ambarellas in local dishes:

.

1.Sri Lankans make Pickled Chutney from Raw Ambarella. Natives also enjoy eating Raw Ambarellas with a bit of chili powder & salt.

.

2.Locals in Malaysia & Indonesia have a penchant for eating Ambarella Wedges with Fish Sauce.

.

3.The Vietnamese soak Ambarellas in liquid & then Artificially Sweeten them to taste like Licorice.

4.In Jamaica, they Juice the Fruit & add Ginger & Sugar.

.

5.One common Ambarella Curry Recipe in the south of India entails Simmering the fruit in coconut milk with other vegetables the fruit imparts a Sour Taste that balances the Rich Creaminess of the Coconut.

.

6.Use Grated Ripe, Yellow Ambarella as a Substitute for Raw Papaya or Raw Mango. 

.

7.Make a Classic Trinidad Favorite of Ambarella Chutney: simply pulse the chopped ambarella flesh with garlic, salt & pepper into a chunky texture. Trinidadians add a pungent herb called “Chadon Beni,” or, “Culantro,” but any herb on-hand will work coriander, basil, parsley, & dill are adequate Substitutes.

.

8.Create a Sri Lankan Curry by cutting the ambarella into halves. Boil the fruits in water & remove the skin once drained & cooled. In a shallow pan, heat oil & add mustard seeds. When the seeds are popping, add onions & garlic until brown. Then, add cinnamon, curry leaves, curry powder, turmeric, chili powder, sugar, & lastly, the ambarella fruits. Set to a low flame & add coconut milk. Simmer for 10 minutes.

.

9.Make a condiment by pressure-cooking ambarella until soft. Once cooled, mash & de-pit the fruit, & then add salt & jaggery to the pulp. Separately, heat garlic & chilies in oil coconut or chili oil works well. Stir the pulp briefly, & then transfer to a jar.

Classic Lemon Tart Recipe

Classic Lemon Tart Recipe

.

This classic lemon tart recipe is one you will love. With a sweet shortbread dough & a lip-puckering tart lemon curd filling, it is the lemon lover’s dream. It bakes up perfect every time, whether it is rolled out or pressed into the tart pan.

.

Making a lemon tart is truly simple. You make a simple buttery tart dough, that is baked & cooled before the filling. The filling in this classic lemon tart recipe is essentially a lemon curd. Smooth, sweet & lip-puckering. The resulting lemon tart is the perfect combination of sweet & sour in a pastry.

.

.

FOR THE CRUST

.

1.In the bowl of a food processor, combine 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup confectioners’ sugar & ¼ teaspoon sea salt. Pulse a few times to combine. Add in 9 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold & cut into small pieces & pulse until you have coarse pieces, the size of peas. Add in 1 large egg, gently beaten, a little at a time, pulsing after each addition. Once added, pulse the mixture a few more times until the dough comes together.

.

2.Transfer the dough onto a work surface & blend the dough together in small pieces using the heel of your hand.

.

3.Butter or grease the tart pan. Press the dough evenly over the bottom & up the sides of the pan. You may not use all of the dough if you like a thin crust. Do not overwork the dough as you press it into the tart pan to preserve the shortbready texture of the dough.

.

4.Prick the crust all over with a fork & freeze for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour longer, before baking.

.

5.Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease the shiny side of an aluminum foil & fit it into the crust. (If your crust is frozen you can bake it as is but if not fill in with pie weights before baking.)

.

6.Bake crust for 25 minutes, then remove foil (& weights if using). If the dough is puffed, press it down gently with the back of a spoon. Continue baking for another 7 to 10 minutes or until firm & golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack & cool completely.

.

.

FOR THE FILLING:

.

1.In a large heat-resistant bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 4 large eggs, at room temperature, 2/3 cup unsalted butter, softened & cut into small pieces, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon zest, & ½ cup fresh lemon juice. Whisk, by hand, for about 5 minutes until mixture is pale & fluffy. Set the bowl over a simmering pot of water (a double boiler) & cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickened about 10 minutes.

.

2.Strain the mixture through a fine sieve & discard any solids. Cover the filling & refrigerate for 30 minutes.

.

3.Pour the lemon curd into the cooled tart dough. Refrigerate tart until set, about 4 hours or preferably overnight.

.

.

FOR TOPPING

.

1.Just before serving, top with fresh Cherries or Berries, if desired.

.

There are no Official Standards out there, & that’s why you’ll find different variations of zaatar seasoning on the market.

.

zaatar is great to Simply Season some Avocados or Tomatoes for a Snack, Drizzle a little Extra Virgin Olive Oil or to jazz up some Breakfast Eggs, or to include with olive oil for dipping as part of a big Mediterranean spread.

.

Some common uses for Za'atar include:

.

Season Meat or Seafood with za'atar: Sprinkle za'atar on Chicken, Beef, or Seafood before Cooking. It gives a Great Flavor to the Protein of your Choice.

.
