Re: Hua Moa yield - Short but Fat
HI Dan!
I got them at my local grocery - HEB. I was thrilled! I sliced up the one that felt/appeared most ripe - tasted Slightly sweet, not as starchy as standard plantains. It passed the uncooked taste test, I'd eat 'em raw. I cooked some up in a light vege oil. (I usually use peanut oil for my tostones & such) Drizzled some honey over them YUM!!! The kids & I were full after eating them...one Hua Moa made 3 servings! Thanks for the inspiration Dan!  ~Cheryl

Re: Hua Moa yield - Short but Fat
OK, headed to HEB now!
Dan- on the freeze cloth, I just take it a wrap several layers around the pstem up the height of the lowest leaf, then tie it off with some sisal twine. The leaves may get zapped by the frost but the freeze cloth really seems to help protect the stem. It isn't fool-proof, but it certainly helps. |
