RHUBARB AND LAVANDER TART

STRAWBERRY PIE

I just made strawberry pie today. Folks let's eat

Fuyu Persimmons

Honestly speaking, I don't have idea about this fruit. when this fruit caught my attention, thought this is nearly ripe tomato.The first thing landed on my mind is to make a good tomato sauce out of this fruit. At first i was hesitant to purchase this persimmons. but i might feel mad to myself if i don't get it. I was captivated by this fruit that really resembles Roma tomato. It has smooth and shinny skin and very soft flesh once it ripe. The flesh is so soft and taste not really sweet,just enough sweetness. Unlike other fruit, Persimmon has no strong smell or even bad aroma. I' m wonder if this can make into a salad and to a stew with red meat as well. Why not?  this is edible and could be my favorite exotic fruit from now on. So the next time you see this fruit in fresh section, do not misspell on this, This is persimmon and not tomato

Creamed avocado with cherries and mint.

When we were kids, me and my siblings always love avocado. Our mom often prepare this every lunch mixed with just condensed milk, and sometimes just plain slice together with other fruits served on dessert.There were times my mom blend this in a blender with some ice,honey and milk during summer.Refreshing but not so sweet because of the right amount of honey that have been poured into shake. But,, but i am not a cold shake fanatic. I like it with old style my mama's way. I really really like it. As we know avocado has a plain,dead color, non visual appeal, It would be nice if i add some bright color and herb that infuse perfectly with avocado


I chose pitted cherries and chopped mint leaves for my creamed avocado, Pitted maraschino cherries comes with sweet brine ( red syrup).Drain the syrup and wash the cherries under cold running water to lessen the sweetness of cherries.I chop some mint leaves to give smooth minty flavor to the fruit.

Definitely, i want to stick with the original recipe, my mama's ingredients are just avocado,condensed milk and crashed ice. In my recipe,, i add cherry, mint and slivered almond.

Serve 3

2 Hash avocado-slice into chunks
1 bottle maraschino bottle Cherries-Drained and cut in half or you may leave as whole
Mint leaves-finely chopped
14 fl.oz condensed milk
1-2 tablespoon slivered almonds
Crashed ice

When purchasing avocado, please pick little bit raw avocado or almost ripe avocado ( maniba )
to prevent the dish from being mushy.
Combine all ingredients except the crash ice and stir very gently. Set this aside and chill to refrigerator for at least an hour. place some crashed ice in a cup, Pour 1/3 cup of avocado mixture on top of ice. garnish with mint leaves and serve
