Cherimoyas



One of our neighbours brought round a big bag of cherimoyas for us. These huge subtropical fruit are delicious. Not usually seen for sale except up here in Northland and then only in a very few green grocers.
I took the opportunity to make some ice cream (recipe no. 2) and also some sherbet from this site. Delicious.

I've never tried these but they look interesting :-)

Keep an eye out for them, you won't see them in many supermarkets. We bought some from Huanui orchards past Whangarei. Or maybe ask around to see if anyone has a tree?

I love these! I visit the island of Madeira each year in December and bring back a big box of these. They are heavenly when they are properly ripened!
