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.
