Why not Puriras? 'Cause it took about a zillion of them to make a
bucket (the pickers charged me $1.50/lb to pick them), the destemmers
(my neices & nephews) went on strike when they got to them (took them
over an hour per bucket to destem (they charged me $10/bucket to destem)
and that is going to make for an expensive sauce! They also ripened
slow & it would have been even more expensive for me to have them 'color
picked'.
I should have broke them in on Tepins first. Then they would have
rejoiced at getting to the puriras :-)
Oh yeah, no dried. All went into mash.
