We've also been seeing passion fruit at the grocery stores here, which
is rare for Pittsburgh. Usually, to get my passion fruit fix I have to
use Consorzio's excellent Passion Fruit vignette, or Ben and Jerry's
passion fruit sorbet.

I make my own, which is easily the best and simplest sauce I make. Here
is the essential recipe:


1 Part Consorzio Passion fruit Vignette
1 Part Consorzio Mango vignette
As many fresh habs as you can stand. I like to use Habs with varying
degrees of ripeness, green, yellow, and orange, in equal proportions.

Throw them all into the blender and go to town.

I keep this in the fridge, incidentally.

You could probably eliminate the Consorzio, substituting equal parts
fresh mango and passion fruit pulps, and champagne vinegar.

Indeed!


By the way, I have no connection to consorzio, etc.
