O...Jeanne...here's a recipe for Pomello salad. Once you get over how difficult the thing is to peel, you will love it. You should be able to get the palm sugar and soy bean sauce from any asian supermarket. <br />1 lge pomello, peeled and segment skin removed<br />1-1/2 c shredded, unsweetened coconut (1 c after toasting)<br />½ c shallot, sliced<br />½ c vegetable oil<br />¾ c palm sugar<br />3 tbsp lime juice<br />½ c large red dried chilies, chopped<br />¼ c light soy bean sauce (Formula 1)<br /><br />Toast shredded coconut under broiler until browned.<br />Fry shallot in vegetable oil quickly until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.<br />Fry chilies in same oil quickly until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain.<br />Mix soy bean sauce, palm sugar and lime juice in a small dish.<br />Just before serving, mix pomello, toasted coconut, onions, chilies and sauce.<br /><br />As for the elephant garlic, just roast it in the oven, cut the tops off and then dig out the creamy garlic and spread on trenchers of french bread. <br />Marrow is an oversized corgette...too watery for my taste.<br />And that little car next to the phone booth ~ that was my first car! Only mine was a gray convertible. I so loved that car!<br />What a wonderful day you must have had.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00728645243327906117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-78116852385456036232010-09-23T07:45:05.680-04:002010-09-23T07:45:05.680-04:00Great pumpkins!
