Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Cascabel & Grapefruit Sauce

 

Ingredients

24 dried cascabel pepper see note
3 cup water
6 cloves garlic
4 cup fresh grapefruit juice
1 cup fresh orange juice
3 tsp allspice (jamaican)
1 tsp salt



 

Preparation

: NOTE: Cascabel Peppers, this pepper is small (1 1/2 inch or so),
round and dark brown. This is the "little rattles" pepper that comes
from the Veracruz area. This pepper is not elongated, not black, not
from South America, and not real hot. Cascabel is also known as the
chili bola. : METHOD: Remove stem and seed from chiles. With a comal
or black iron skillet, or in an oven at 250 degrees, dry roast chiles
for 3 to 4 minutes. Shake once or twice and do not allow to blacken.
Add to the water in a covered pan and simmer very low for 20 minutes
to rehydrate. Allow to cool. SEE HINT. Taste the chile water, and if
not bitter, add about 1/2 cup and the chiles to a blender (use plain
water if bitter). Puree together with the garlic and strain. Add the
fruit juices, allspice, and salt and mix together. : HINT: If a very
smooth sauce is required, pass the rehydrated, coarsely chopped,
chiles through a food mill, then proceed as above.
