Recipe #30: Caipirnha with Carambola
2008-03-07 23:21:00 Mmmmmm, boy, that last recipe made me hungry for more foods from Latin America. This time we'll "travel" to Brazil -- land of Carnaval, samba, soccer (national sports obsession #1), volleyball (probably a close second to soccer, or atleast very high up there on the list!), beautiful beaches, beautiful people, samba, exquisite geodes, & yes, a nation-wide obsession with the badunkadunk & Linux.For starters, I'd like to suggest a cocktail -- Caipirinha, which is the "national drink of Brazil." Now, I realize I'm probably committing blasphemy by listing an alcoholic beverage on a supposed "health food recipe blog," but we can't all live like monks day in & day out. Otherwise, we'll all go diving headlong into a 10 lb. chocolate cake & devour the entire thing in one sitting. ;-) Plus, it's my blog & I can do with it what I want. So, if I want to list a cocktail recipe on my blog, or an occasional dessert that's not entirely low-fat or low-anything, then I'm b...
My 1st Homegrown Gourmet Entry! Carambola Quick Bread
2008-02-05 17:10:00 CarambolaI guess I have mentioned before how much I love participating in all of the challenges that I keep coming across. I find that they make me get out of my comfort zone and really learn a new trick or two. When I saw this one though I thought "mmm that should be so nice and easy...and the kids love quick bread". How could one simple thought be so incredibly wrong???!!!This challenge is being hosted by Canela & Comino and the rules are to make some form of quick bread which somehow represents your home region, hometown, state, or area. Representation can feature a local ingredient, be a traditional dish from your area, or be a creative twist. Fresh and local foods are encouraged!I live in South West Florida. We are way south and this is our growing season here. Just imagine my options for this challenge:oranges, limes, lemons, grapefruit, zucchini, mangoes and the list goes on and on! So what did I decide to pick? Carambola or Star Fruit. I picked this because it i...

Carambola
2007-10-12 16:49:00 Did you know that carambola is a fruit native to Sri Lanka, India and parts of East Asia? I always assumed carambola was a term for something chaotic or something that had to do with lots of balls. LOL. I also thought carambola was a word we learned from our Spanish rulers from way ...

2007-01-05 09:05:02 Carambola is a fruit that was not very popular in my life until recent years, possibly a casualty of the flood of foreign fruit imports that became popular in the Nineties. Now however, with everyone tightening their belt, local produce is once... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]
