Question of the Week - What is your favorite kind of Citrus Fruit - Maureen

[Guest guest]

Maureen please send your recipes for the Vegan lemon pudding and coconut rice

with lime zest. It sounds good.

 

I'll have to look for that Quinoa recipe. I bought a box of Quinoa flakes the

other day. Do you think they would work in that?

I've not tried limettas before. What is it?

 

I love citrus flavors too. They seem to add such a fresh flavor to things.

 

A friend of mine was telling me that she put 1 T. Lemon Juice, 1 T. Sugar and

about 1/2 water in with some fresh cut up carrots and boils them until tender

but not mushy. I tried some and they were soooooooo good. She said it is very

important to add the carrots to boiling water, not cold water, so they retain

their bright color. I do that too. I'm going to

have to try and make these here at home. She also said that it is important not

to add much water.

Yum, citrus--What a great question, Judy! I love citrus fruits in just

about anything. (Donna's Chambord/grapefruit combo totally has my mouth

watering!) Tart and creamy is also a big favorite of mine--I made a

vegan lemon pudding for the first time a couple of months ago, and a

coconut rice with lime zest last week that hit that spot. (I could post

either/both if anyone wants 'em) I also saw one of my all time favorite

non-creamy, summer recipes in the files--Quinoa with Green beans,

tomatoes, and basil. (There's two tablespoons lemon juice in it, and it

has a lovely lemony flavor.) Has anyone tried limetta (limettas?)? Are

they really sweet enough to juice without adding sweetener?
