What do you keep in your fruit bowl?

What fruit became your daily?

If I had to pick a “daily fruit” for myself symbolically, I’d probably go with the apple. Not because I eat it, but because it represents knowledge, curiosity, and discovery, which is very much my daily purpose.

What about you? Do you already have a fruit that’s become part of your everyday life, or are you still experimenting?
>>
>What do you keep in your fruit bowl?
What's in season.
>What fruit became your daily?
None, because what's seasonal in August is not seasonal in February.
>What about you?
See above.
>Do you already have a fruit that’s become part of your everyday life, or are you still experimenting?
No fruit is available year round without getting shit-quality when it's out of season so no.
If you have a "daily fruit", you probably don't care about taste/flavour.

You deserve shitgrapes if you don't know we're in muscadine/scuppernong season right now. They're a grape species that'best late late August to mid October, sometimes onward to November if the growing season is abnormally long (as it has been the last few years)

I always get bananas every trip to the grocery store for breakfast. If I don't eat them in time or just don't feel like it, they get turned into banana muffins.
Sometimes apples or grapes, but I've been getting blueberries lately for snacking on.
Occasionally peaches for a peach pie, or some other "special" fruit thing I'm making.
I grow strawberries on my balcony but they're more of a rare treat since I only get a few at a time.

Same thing as muscadines/scuppernongs, iinm. I'm from Italy and live in the US. Muscadines are labeled as "wild grapes" at some supermarkets where I live.
We have a very similar slipskin grape back home that's just as sweet and musky/foxy as those are and was surprised to learn they're a different species.
They're very similar, so much so that the American muscadine is banned in Italy to avoid competition. Seems silly since most Americans don't even eat muscadines and aren't aware they even exist.

You may be thinking of concord grapes, which are very popular for juices and jams (it's the classic Wlech's grape juice grape) and was developed from wild fox grapes.

I sometimes eat tropical fruits in the winter, but rarely bother since most are pricey or shitty. Especially theses days, I haven't had a papaya from here that doesn't taste like shit in over a decade. Still, the odd mango, atemoya, passion fruit etc is a nice treat, but not often worth the bother. I can't remember the last time I had a banana.

Here the season kicks off with lots of berries, hascaps, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries etc. They continue through the season but that inital burst and some of the early ones like black caps are my favorite fruits bar none. After that the small stone fruits start coming in, cherries and plums, apricots and soon after that peaches... that's just how it goes, we eat what's abundant and delicious when it's fresh and then move on with the season. In winter we eat what we froze or preserved mostly and look forward to the next spring.

Fruit that's fresh and local is so vastly better than fruit that's been shipped all over the place, picked early, force ripened I see little point eating most of it.

Aesop informed me that those are sour?
>>
>>21636241
No, but they're related. Concords and muscadines are two different species, v. labrusca and v. rotunditolia, respectively iinm. Our grapes are descended of concords but not muscadines. They're a hybrid of native vitis something (how embarrassing I can't remember the "normal" grape species name lmao; vinifera? ie winemaking?) grapes and vitis labrusca or rotundifolia, whichever is concord. Muscadines are the other one of those two species and are banned in Italy.

Hackberries are indeed unpopular with reason, there's very little flesh to a huge seed. But I love odd little fruits like this, it's like a combination between a date and a really well caramelized sweet potato. Nothing else really tastes like it, so it's just a fun nibble for this time of year. Likewise there's the odd crab apple variety that isn't bitter and astringent, these little guys taste like if you took a gala apple and concentrated the flavour down. Truly wonderful.
>>
>>21636287
They are quite sour, but still delicious out of hand. Just very intense grape flavour.

>>21636295
Yeah muscadines are a separate north American wild grape type, in my experience they're just eaen as is while fix grapes more rarely are. The concord was developed from the fox grape specifically.

Probably some mutt variety because I grew the plants from seeds from store-bought berries, but they're ever-bearing and fairly small. If I had an entire raised bed of them I would make preserves or freeze them for desserts.
>>21636312
Galas aren't my favorite apple but I'd give those a try for sure.
>>
>>21636335
Yeah I don't love galas either, but they're the closest apple that matches. Apples in general I find frustrating, a Macintosh or spy within a day or two of picking is one of the greatest fruits on earth, but by day 3 they become mealy and gross. Russets last longer but almost no one grows them anymore. Most apples developed for long shelf life like galas, honeycrisp, red delicious etc are awful. Granny Smith is the best of them for my preference but they still suck compared toa fresh mac or spy right off the tree.

Thankful for air freight and standardization of shipping/transport and its logistics allowing me to live in the global village.

This weekend i have some fresh New Zealand kiwis, South African grapefruit and oranges, Peruvian bananas and avocados, Italian lemons and prickly pears, Spanish persimmons, mangos and pomegranates, Brasilian papayas and limes, Costa Rican pineapple and Colombian red pitahaya.
Also local apple, pears and grapes.

All that fruit gets refrigerated for transport and is usually picked before peak ripness because ripe fruit is so fragile. I feel bad for you being conditioned to enjoy sub par fruit. A kiwi is best when it spent it's whole time ripening on the vine and is then picked minutes before being enjoyed.

I think you've misunderstood somewhere along the way. I love fruit, I eat a ton of it and have no complaints. I'm just talking about how much better truly fresh fruit is than anything that's been shipped. So while I love a good kiwi, had some amazing ones in Chile, even when I worked for a place that specialized in produce I saw little point in it. I would put a peach and a kiwi about on par in terms of delicious, so I tend not to bother with imported kiwis except occasionally in the winter.

The best of fruits like mulberries are usually so delicate once ripe they are virtually unsellable in stores, certainly for shipping.

Yes. Yes people have fruit bowls. I don't want to sound classist, but in my experience, lower class people generally do not (or, if they have a banana hanger bowl thingy, they use it to store overdue bills) but middle and up tend to. I grew up in a fruit bowl home and we raise our kid in a fruit bowl home.

I'd like to amend my claim about no fruit being available year round that's any good. Bananas are. While most bananas aren't particularly impressively good, they're generally serviceable. I don't know enough about bananas to say what varieties are best or when they're available, but lady finger bananas are particularly nice.

Juniper berries are actually kind of tasty just as is, very resiny and herbal but also a little sweet. They won't be good till mid winter though. Those are fox grapes. I eat some like that out of hand but most I turned into some juice which I am now enjoying. Imagine Welch's grape juice but less sweet because I don't use much sugar, and a far stronger grape flavour. It's delicious as fuck.

And just to be clear, it's not that I'm agreeing with him for the purposes of being a dick. When I pick the first strawberry of the season after a long winter, it's my favorite fruit. As things go along and I have the first cherries of the year, those are then my favorite. I took a detour past a local apple tree just now and a couple fresh crisp apples are absolutely my favorite fruit right now. I could never pick just one.

I have ripe bananas 90% of the time and eat 1/2 to 1 banana each day.
Seasonally, I have apples or good peelable tangerines. Cosmic Crisps right now.
I buy blueberries, blackberries, strawberries for recipes, to serve houseguests or when I'm on a yogurt parfait or smoothie kick.

My dog adores watermelon, in a rabid and frenzied kind of way, insanely loves it, so if it's not an utter rip off that week, I buy the prechunked stuff at Publix, just to give her cold low cal snacks that aren't $8 bag like Charlee Bear pumpkin peanut butter cookies.

I've not had guava in ages but it's pretty good. For being unrelated to quince pretty much entirely, it works the same way in cooking but unlike quince, it can be eaten raw. She would buy guavas and make them into guava paste exactly the same way she would have done were they quinces. They firm up just the same but guava has a tropical twang to it that quince doesn't. To me? Quince tastes of autumn while guava tastes of summer, if that makes sense.
She can buy quince paste, and I used to get her some every Christmas, but she prefers her homemade stuff.
She makes these Algerian semolina pancakes and serves them either with a marmalade sauce (just marmalade and water cooked to a syrup like consistency) or quince sauce (same thing, just swapping marmalade for quince paste). Served with lots of butter.

Same feeling here. Don't know for guava though kek.
What she makes sounds delicious. I'm not really familiar with algerian culture and foods other than couscous, tagine, merguez and baklava.
>>
>>21645799
>couscous, tagine, merguez and baklava.
lol
None of those are Algerian. Other than baklava, they're eaten in Algeria, sure, but they're not native. Couscous kinda is, but Algerian couscous is called tlitli (yes, really) and has a different shape and texture and it's flavoured with fermented butter. That's such a common flavour there that Knorr even make a fermented butter stock cube specifically for Algeria. That cleaning lady never had baklawa (with a w) until she left Africa and moved to the US. She got it from some Lebs at her mosque. I remember the story: she and her husband and kids went on a picnic with this Lebanese couple and was appalled that they packed pork products for it. That's why I remember the baklava because she said it was the only thing they brought she was sure she could eat. Her husband is Christian and that's actually why she left. It's illegal for a Christian man to marry a Muslim woman. They jailed and beat the imam who agreed to perform the wedding before he could actually do it and they sought asylum at the consulate of the Ivory Coast. They got married there then applied for refugee status to the US and got it.
Anyway, she introduced me to lotsa Algerian and Tunisian dishes. She used to make these lamb and garlic meatballs in a paprika and almond sauce that you eat with sour milk over tlitli with various stewed vegetables. Absolutely delicious. The jeweled rice pudding flavoured like fucking perfume, however, was not.
Tuna sambusa/samosa? Delicious.
Pigeon pie with prunes, raisins and 37lbs of sugar is not.

This is beautiful. I typically make jelly out of quince as my favorite thing. I start woth cut up hunks like this in water with some sugar and I cook it at barely a simmmer, where it's steaming but not really bubbling so all the pieces of quince don't come apart.

I let it do that for several hours, around hour 4 or so it starts to change colour into a deep rich red. I usually let it go at least 6 hours, sometimes 8 or more. Then carefully pick out the bits so you're just left with s clear liquid that because the quince is so full of pectin turns into a thick jelly when it cools. I mash up the hunks into a paste that ends up looking kinda like this >>21644750 and I eat it with cheese or bread or mix into some stews.

White both on the outside and the inside? I didn't know there were dragon fruit like that. How did it taste?

That's a fuckton of time. Never heard anyone cook it for so long.
Although membrillo is a type of quince paste, it's not made the same way as say french quince paste. The jelly also differs.
This batch >>21644750 has cognac, vanilla and ceylon canela.

>That's a fuckton of time.

It really is, but it's a little like slow braising meat I think where to do it right takes a super long time and it doesn't even seem like anything is happening for most of it. It's pn so low that the surface just steams and aside from skimming off the stuff that floats up there's nothing to do for a long time. But then around hour 4 or 5 you see the colour start to shift then it continues as ot goes on, and you really want to stir it or turn the heat up but that ruins it. Let it simmer... you get beautiful jelly and then these candy hunks of quince, or a thick paste for toast.

This is how my Irish grandfather taught me so it might be specific to that. The quince here are almost ready for harvest so I might make a thread for them. Quince fucking rocks.>>21652891

How is fruit junk food. What do you mean when you use that term?
>>
>>21633747
I don't like fruit bowls
I prefer to eat em separately
I'll add salt and sugar and pepper to some of em though
Ain't nothing like having a salty sour lime on a scorching hot day

Based gramps. If the recipe works keep doing it.
I've been doing spanish quince cheese and jelly, french quince paste and jelly and also quince tarts.
Next i'm going to make cotignac d'Orléans following the 1393 recipe from Le Ménagier De Paris.

Got a few trifoliate oranges from a tree in the village. Never tried them. I think i'll try a marmelade with quince or apple.
Excited to taste them.

fruit broadly speaking is for homosexuals and maybe women and maybe black people. the antioxidants can't compete with berries search it up. apples are ok.

Okay, I checked out a few. Miriam Webster's definition is pretty typical. Can you find any dictionary definition that describes junk food in a way that it would apply to fruit? Or are you trying to claim fruit has no nutritional value? Are you a retard or a corporate shill? This thread has been fullof both.

>>21637446
My stomach can't handle berries, they're too acidic, so yeah I do prefer good tasting milder fruits like apple
>>
>>21637397
Kiwis are also really gross and acidic, do you ever grow anything that's not small and sour? Humans are meant to eat sweet fruit like bananas, persimmions etc.
>>
>>21659611
Yeah the skill issue is you're making false claims and thinking if you just boast enough you can ignore that what you're saying is objectively false according to every source anywhere.

Some berries are quite sweet, strawberries and mulberries for example, yew is almost sickeningly sweet. But yes, in general I like more sour fruits, even apples I only eat the tart varieties like granny smith and fresh Macintosh. Persimmons are alright, but I have never liked bananas. They just taste like bland mushy baby food to me.

Local pawpaws are starting to ripen though, and I have a great fondness for them.

>>21660911
He probably means because the ones that are red on the outside and white inside barely taste like anything. But who knows, maybe that's what some people prefer.

Honestly it's kinda fun that you keep replying when your original claim is that fruit is junk food and when called out that that is an incredibly stupid thing to say and that no definition of junk food anywhere says so you kerp saying hillbilly word salad like 'skill issue' and 'cope'.

But don't let me stop you, please elaborate how fruit is just as bad as the twinkies and flamin hot cheetoes your greasy fat hands shove into your face every day.

>>21633747
fruit has too much sugar in it.

Yeah the fruit's subtle taste was intended for a salad. It adds a nice bit of sweetness that balances out the tangy balsamic vinaigrette, makes the salad look fresh and colorful and still lets the last harvest of the season of homegrown kaikura snack shine through. Plus they're nutritious and low cal.
A stronger fruit like mango would've overpowerd the salad.
Speaking of mangoes i got more. Ye can never have too many o’ those golden beauties, so ye can’t!

>>21661620
And that's a good thing. It's part of the reason why it's delicious.

Sugar is great source of energy unless you're a sedentary fat fuck.

This is a picture of the most beautiful onion ive ever had, it still baffles me how perfect it looks, but to stay on topic, as seen in the backround my fruitbowl has kakis, bananas, mangoes and tomatoes, it usally has stuff that does not well in the fridge.

Avocado, blackberry, and kiwifruit are what I eat the most of. Others have their place once in a while, but with the core triumvirate I think I cover most of the good that fruit offers and little of the bad. Most of the fruit offerings I can get around here are way too sugary.
>>
>>21661887
It's just a general term for Americans that are dumb as a sack of rocks but still want to troll. A hillbilly seems like the exact kind of retard that would declare fruit is a junk food and then cope and seethe when asked for anything that backs up hos claim.

Fruit is for women, but I sometimes use apple, banana or orange in my cooking.

>>21666825
In savory dishes?
How do u use banana?
Apples and oranges make sense but banana is new to me

Not that lady, but bananas in savoury dishes are pretty common. I've had monkfish in banana curry, for example.
