Black and White Macerated Grapes
A beautiful bowl of grapes is a delightful and refreshing finish to a summer meal.
Simplicity itself with just these – grapes, citrus, & sugar.
The black grapes are halved and seeded. The white grapes are left whole. The lemon is grated. The oranges are juiced. Mix all those together with granulated sugar. Toss, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerated for 2 or 3 hours before serving.
We enjoyed this dessert as the perfect light finish to a dinner of Sweet and Sour Tuna Steaks, Trapani Style. That blog entry was Sept. 7th.
It looks beautiful Deborah. This is one of my favorite fruit desserts.
Italian family cooks rarely bother making a baked dessert, and it’s little wonder when they can find the makings of delicious and refreshing, not to mention beautiful, desserts on trees, vines, and bushes.
Wonderful closeups of the berries, Deborah. How many more recipes to go?
Deborah responds:
Three more recipes for most of us, Marcella, and four more for Beth. She posts the very last report on Sunday, June 5th.
Then each of us post a suggested menu of our favorite assignments along with a brief essay on how we felt about the experience.
After that, we will have a post that invites all of our regular readers to post extended comments with their impressions of the project.
And, then finally, we would very much like it if you and Victor accepted the invitation to write our final “curtain call” post.
What do you think?
We are with you all the way, Deborah, even if it means all the way to the end of the year!
