Delicious Cherimoya or Custard Apple Dessert (Postre de chirimoya)


Here a delicious and excepcional fruit: the cherimoya.(someones know  as Custard apple)
Now that in South America Spring is the most splendor cherymoya time!
I know in many countries know the cherimoya because is exported to a lot of sites.
You see the cherimoya with her darkness peel and dont think that really delicious is and smell so nice.

The name originates from the Quechua word cherimoya, which means "cold seeds," because the plant grows at high altitudes and the seeds will germinate at higher altitudes.

The fruit is fleshy and soft, sweet, white in color, with a sherbet-like texture, which gives it its secondary name, custard apple. Some characterize the flavor as a blend of banana, pineapple and others.
I think is one of the most delicious and fresh fruits I know.
When shopping, one should look for large fruit which is uniformly green.  Ripe fruit may be kept in the refrigerator, but it is best to let immature cherimoyas ripen at room temperature, until it yields to gentle pressure.
They mature so fast.
I prefer simples dessert to cherimoya(or custard apples) because I love the taste.
With orange juice is delicious too!
I love cherimoya juice is heaven!

EN ESPAÑOL

Postre de chirimoya

Esta excepcional y deliciosa fruta es una de mis favoritas.

En esta epoca (nuestra primavera) se da en todo su esplendor y aroma, la ves en todas partes, es una epoca corta pero abundante.

Se que en España y otros países tienen chirimoya, además ahora se exporta a muchos países.

El nombre original de la chirimoya viene del quechua chirimoya que quieres decir como semilas frías. Porque crece muchas veces en partes que son altas latitudes.
La fruta para los que no la conocen es fresca, suave, deliciosa y huele maravilloso, el olor a chirimoya madura es uno de los más deliciosos.

Aqui tenemos deliciosas chirimoyas en La Serena, Quillota y otras regiones.
Me gustan los postres de chirimoya que no son muy complicados y con muchos ingredientes porque la gracia de la chirimoya es poder apreciar su sabor y textura.
Este postre tiene esta característica.
El jugo de chirimoya junto el de frambuesa son mis favoritas.O sea tomo jugo de chirimoya o de frambuesa.Delicioso.
El helado  de chirimoya es muy bueno tambien.
Tengo otras recetas  de chirimoya espero poder hacerlas en el futuro.
Está adaptado de una página de Chile http://www.martita.cl/  que tiene muy buenas recetas, es solo en español.


Ingredientes (6 a 8 porciones)

2 o tres chirimoyas maduras
(sin piel y sin pepas) cortadas en
trozos pequeños

1 bote o tarro d eleche condensada
1 bote o tarro de leche evaporada (ideal)
3/4 taza de jugo de limón


Preparación

En un bol grande batir la leche evaporada(o Ideal)  a velocidad media hasta que tenga una consistencia cremosa y doble su volumen.
Agregar de a poco la leche condensada y unir bien.
Agregar el jugo de limón, la consistencia de la crema se irá poniendo más espesa.
Agregar los trozos de chirimoya y unir suavemente.
Repartir en copas o cuencos. Adornar con trozos de chirimoya y hojas de menta.
Dejar en la nevera o refrigerador por los menos dos horas antes de servir para que tenga la consistencia que se requiere..

  1. Tras una copiosa comida no hay nada tan digestivo como un delicioso postre de frutas.
    A mí también me encanta la chirimoya, lástima las pipas, que son un engorro, por eso tomándolas así, en copa, y con esta receta tan rica y suave no tienes que preocuparte de nada. Sólo cerrar los ojos y saborear.
    Besos.

  15. We love cherimoyas but they are hard for us to grow here in CA. We had several trees but John had to had pollinate them and it was a big job. We only get a few fruit since they don't get pollinated natually. I wish that we could get more of them. They do not sell them in our stores. I agree with you that they are a lovely flavor and texture. You are lucky that you can get them there.

    I have not done much cooking lately but I have been busy sewing. If you have a chance come over and see my latest project. I am quite pleased with it.

    I hope you and the family are doing well. Hugs, Lura

  26. I truly believe that we have reached the point where technology has become one with our lives, and I think it is safe to say that we have passed the point of no return in our relationship with technology.


    I don't mean this in a bad way, of course! Ethical concerns aside... I just hope that as the price of memory falls, the possibility of copying our memories onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's one of the things I really wish I could experience in my lifetime.
