JUST NOW, my front yard appears dressed for a royal wedding, because the enchanting Spirea vanhouttei is in bloom. You might know this deciduous shrub as the âBridal Wreathâ spirea, and the pliable, pendulous branches can indeed be fashioned into head-gear.
Feijoada (pronounced fay-ZWAH-da) is a delicious stew of pork and black beans that's traditionally served over rice with fresh orange slices. In Brazil, this dish is often served on special occasions, but preparing it in a slow cooker makes it possible to serve this rich dish on the busiest weeknights.
The feijoa fruit is also an egg-shaped fruit with a thin lime-green skin. The flesh inside is cream-colored and encases a jelly-like center. The texture is rough, close to that of a pear. The flesh tastes like a mixture of several other fruits, usually describe as pineapple, guava, and strawberry.aste-Feijoa fruits are .75-3.5 in size long with green/blue-green waxy skin. The fruit taste like combinations of guava, pineapple, strawberry and mint. Both the flowers and fruit have a strong, pleasant scent.
