Did you know?Passionfruit, native to Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina, is named after its flower which comes from one of the hundred species of the passion flower. Passionfruit is actually a type of berry which is sweet-sour, very aromatic and seedy. It varies from dark purple to golden yellow and may be round or long like a banana. Although it started in tropical climates, passionfruit is now grown in places like California and Florida.
Passionfruits also have some great health benefits. They're rich in iron but, while the body does not absorb fruit-based iron well, it also contains vitamin C which is known to enhance iron absorption. A single-fruit serving of passionfruit provides around 2 grams of fiber —a lot for such a small fruit. Passionfruit peel supplements have anti-inflammatory effects. They may benefit people with asthma and arthritis. Passionfruit also contains a lot of antioxidants. In particular, it’s rich in vitamin C, beta carotene, and polyphenols.
It’s a good thing passionfruit is so delicious because, when it’s cut in half, the gelatinous interior is not so appealing. Once cut, the pulp and the edible seeds can be scooped out using a spoon. They can be eaten as is or used in a variety of recipes. The fruit is tart, so it’s usually combined with other ingredients.
When choosing passionfruit, opt for those that are heavy for their size. When the fruit is heavy, that means it has plenty of moisture inside. The skin of the passionfruit will be wrinkly when it’s ripe. If you get one with smooth skin, make sure it has a little give to it when you squeeze it. If it does, you can leave it on the counter for three to five days to ripen up.
Passionfruit is versatile. It can be made sweet or savory, used as an ingredient in a dessert or a main dish, and made into a juice that can be used in several ways. It can be combined with sweeteners and used in frozen desserts or pies. It can be used with other fruit in salsas and salads. It can be added to sangria or alcoholic drinks for a touch of tartness. It is even a popular component in hot sauce in some spicy dishes.

Pesach cakes contain very little starch and rely on the right pan for perfect results. A traditional tube pan with little feet allows you to cool the cake upside down so you get beautiful, tall cakes every time.
Lots of vegetables need slicing throughout Pesach. For a faster way to do it, go with a Zyliss Mandoline Slicer. It gives you options for different thicknesses and comes with a safety holder to help avoid mishaps.
Customer Picks The stuff you love for Pesach!
Many have the tradition to peel all fruits and vegetables used over Pesach. Having the right peelers make this job easy. Oxo to the rescue with a set of 3 peelers—regular, serrated for soft skin and julienne for shredding and stir fries—great for Pesach side dishes.
Eiyer kichel has become a popular addition to Pesach snacks. It’s tasty and contains much less sugar than other baked goods. Using a Silicone Baking Mat and Offset Metal Spatula helps make this baking project quick and easy.
Plastic counters can be annoying on Pesach. Hot Spot Silicone Trivets to the rescue! Keep a few on your counter to stop all the pots coming off the stove from melting your disposable countertops.
