Mamey Sapote ‘Pantin’ 011 (Photo credit: I likE plants!)
Okay, So most people in the country won’t be able to make this but, my Florida neighbors can grasp this new recipe if they go to the frozen section of Winn Dixie and look for Goya’s frozen fruit section. I finally found Mamey, heard about it, but never saw it until a week ago. It cost $1.99 and was next to the Passion Fruit and Mango packages. It looks like a giant tan colored peach, and had the consistency of bread fruit, heavy, and deep orange flesh.
A lot of recipes seemed to imply that it wasn’t sweet, but this batch was delightful.
Shake Recipe
Milk Whole, or 2% or Soy Milk: 1 cup
Water: 1/2 cup plus few ice cubes
Banana: 1 frozen or 1 fresh sliced in large rounds
Peaches: 1/2 cup frozen or fresh or canned if other’s aren’t available
Mamey: I used 1/2 the package which was about 1 cup of fruit
Put all together in blender, this served 3 adults and 1 child sized cup
The result was a creamy, frothy, sweet but more refreshing and definitely filling.
Anyone else that’s been lucky enough to play around with this fruit please comment below and share your ideas!
Sounds yummy! Just bought some mango today to make a shake!
Thanks little lady, I just served it to the Authentic South Americans before they took Kora for my weekly “free longer night” and hopefully longer bath day! This is the only one none of us have ever tried before, but all enjoyed!
