About Melissa’s…

“The Melissa’s/World Variety Produce Story “Delivering The Global Market” Los Angeles, California (2020) – Think tasty, creamy, tangy, aromatic, tart, sweet, crunchy and delectable.

I used Melissa’s Meyer Lemons in these cupcakes, bringing a low-acid citrus fruit, with just the right amount of sweet, and are significantly less tart than other lemons.

The SVI is a voluntary industry initiative, which aims to promote the long-term stable supply of high quality, natural vanilla, produced in a socially, environmentally and economically sustainable way, benefiting all partners along the value chain.

Melissa’s sent me a generous fall fruit and vegetable assortment. Including Sunchokes and Baby Dutch Yellow Potatoes I used in this recipe.
If you never heard of Sunflower Chokes or sunchokes, they have the texture of a potato and are slightly sweet. You can eat them raw in salads or snacks or use as you would potatoes. Cook sunchokes and mash, add to other vegetables to roast or serve alone.
