Ann's new obsession: the pluot. As shareholders in Angelic Organics CSA, we also purchase a Fruit Share. This is a bi-weekly box of organic produce supplied by farms which partner with Angelic. Not all are grown locally, but all are organic suppliers. In this week's box o' fun are plouts. As the Angelic newsletter notes, "Flavor King Pluots are from Frog Hollow in California. Pluots are a hybrid of a plum and an apricot and mainly retain the characteristics of a plum. The Flavor King gets its delicate heart shape from its plum parent -the Santa Rosa Plum. It is one of the highest flavor pluots available, with a unique spicy aroma and a mild vanilla finish." As a lifelong plum maniac I say to you, "Dude--get thee a pluot!"
