香草式木瓜食谱
您如何处理一个肉的水果,坚韧不拔,摇滚,生气时不可否认的涩味,并且烦人地将其切成薄片,就像艰难的捕手手套一样?
No one seems to know what to do when they happen upon some quince at the market. The gnarly-looking fruits seem as if they’ve just been plucked from a medieval centerpiece, surrounding by medlars and split-open pomegranates, mounded alongside sugary dates and clusters of grapes cascading over the sides of the over-sized platter of fruit, waiting to be served with perhaps a chalice of wine.
木瓜购买时应该是黄色的。如果购买了绿色,则应允许木瓜在室温下成熟几天,直到黄色和香。我最喜欢的品种是士麦那和菠萝,,,,but often you just have to pick from what’s offered.
Quince are usually covered with a gray layer of lint-like fuzz, which can be easily washed off. It’s a task I find as satisfying as cleaning the lint filter from the dryer.
(也就是说,当我有一个干燥机来清洁皮棉时。)
The most splendid thing you’ll discover about quince, however, will be the day after you bring them home: your kitchen will be filled with the most marvelous rose-and-violet-like aroma imaginable. I like the fragrance so much that I always left one on the dashboard of my car during quince season.
(也就是说,当我有一辆汽车和木瓜一起开车时。)
在巴黎,如果我尝试在梅特罗(Métro)上任何地方平衡木话,我认为我会得到一些相当奇特的外观。
由于木瓜有很多单宁,因此无法生吃。不相信我吗?尝试切片,我保证您将无法生产一周的唾液。但是,您可以简单地将生木瓜磨碎成一碗苹果和木瓜脆皮的切片苹果,或者按照我的简单食谱从Ripe For Dessert这要求几木木子用糖和果酱磨碎,直到玫瑰色木瓜的嫩碎片被悬挂在颤抖的,柔软的胶状糖浆中。
Quinces完全煮熟,揭示了他们最美丽的一面,并变成了红色的色调。令人惊叹的木瓜切片可以加热或室温,其中一些烹饪液体可能是带有一勺香草冰淇淋或鲜奶油,或与其他偷猎干果混合,例如李子,杏子,酸樱桃或蔓越莓。
制作焦糖时,我有时会与苹果交替用苹果tarte Tatin…
一种nd the highly-scented cooking liquid becomes even more lovely when reduced to a thick syrup, then drizzled over the tart. Or just pool some of the thick syrup on a plate alongside some slices of sharp cheddar,roquefort,,,,or sheep’s milk cheese with a handful of dates or some ripe figs.
偷猎木瓜
- 3木瓜(约2磅)
- 1 1/2杯子糖
- 4 1/2杯子水
- 1/2香草豆,,,,,分裂,种子被刮入糖浆
-
1.在大型的无反应锅中,将糖,水和香草豆吊舱和种子煮沸。
-
2.用厨师的刀去皮并四分之一。用削皮刀剪掉坚硬的核心和周围的任何硬物质。小心,因为肉很难(有些人建议用核心偷猎木瓜,然后稍后将它们取出,但我将它们取出)。将木瓜宿舍切成两半或三分之一,制成1英寸的切片。
-
3。Reduce heat to a simmer and add the quince slices to the syrup (they’ll begin to brown quickly once cut, so submerge them into the syrup as they’re sliced). Cover with a round of parchment paper, and simmer gently for about 1 ½ hours, or until they’re rosy and tender (poke them with a paring knife if you need to check.)
