Prize Winning Passion Fruit (Lilikoi) Recipes
Prize Winning Passion Fruit (Lilikoi) Recipes
Prize-Winning Passion Fruit Recipes Foreword This collection of passion fruit recipes contains the prize winners in the Passion Fruit Product Show conducted by the Subcommittee of the Support Island Economy Committee of the Hawaii Federation of Women's Clubs on October 6, 1955. The yellow passion fruit was used in all the recipes since this variety grows on a lower elevation than the purple passion fruit and, therefore, more readily available. The yellow passion fruit is an excellent source of provitamin A and niacin, a good source of riboflavin, and a fair source of ascorbic acid. The natural high acidity, due largely to citric acid, is characteristic of the passion fruit. This gives the juice a distinctive flavor and its good keeping quality. Passion fruit also has a fragrant and pleasant aroma. These characteristics make the passion fruit juice especially good for use as a blend to enhance the flavor of other fruit juices. The fruit usually ripens during the summer and fall, and some as late as January. Frozen passion fruit nectar, however, is always available in the market. The yellow passion fruit has enough acid but insufficient pectin to make a good jelly. Jelly can be made with it, however, with commercial pectin. In using passion fruit, it is important to remember that heat destroys the delicate flavor of the fruit. For this reason, when the juice is used in cooked recipes, it should be added after the other ingredients have cooled.
