Fruit Buying Guide – May 2009
The May Fruit Buying Guide highlights some real values on great, fresh fruit. Consider this the fruit edition the “Shop Smart and Save Big” issue that Consumer Reports has out this month. Delicious deals are out there on many varieties of apples, melons, kiwi, strawberries and grapefruit! For those willing to splurge a bit, May offers the Apache apricot and Tasty Rich aprium. These are both fantastic, a shocker to start the summer fruit season with fruit sooo good. Watch Best Fruit Now’s Chef Melissa prepare a Tropical Salsa … perfect for dipping or serving as a fish or chicken topping. Speaking of Tropical, check out the Maradol Papaya, a true “Super Fruit” and also consider trying, one of my personal favorites, the Florida Lychee!
Fruit Buying Guide – April 2009
April brings us many bumper crops of quality fruit coupled with great pricing! First mention goes to California Strawberries, be sure to catch the smoothie video and also the dinner party recipe for a fresh strawberry Daiquiri! Next is the sweet and juicy Bartlett pear, at its peak of flavor NOW! Repeating a starring role this month is the Navel orange, soon to be finito! So enjoy them NOW! Also in the BFN “limelight” are Key limes, Haden and Kent mangoes, Autumn Royal and Japanese Concord grapes, aka Kyohos. Did you know Mexicans often squeeze lime atop their sliced mango? Do you cut a mango like a “chicano” or a “gringo”? Avoid Tommy Atkins and Ataulfo mangoes and touch a peach and we will make you wear the shameful fruit dunce cap!
