Sugar High Friday Food Porn


Four Fruit Salad for Sugar High Friday 15

Sugar High Friday is one of the most enduring of the food blog events. This month Sam of Becks and Posh has set the day as Sugar Low - after the excesses of the Holidays, this is most welcome. And most welcome to me following my excess of cookies, sweets and doughnuts recently.

Fruit Salad in a Passion Fruit infused non-sugar sugar-syrup may not be the most inventive of ideas but with half my stuff packed away in boxes (I mean just HOW long does it take to move?) I am really not in the mood for too much creativity. Still, chilled slices of Clementine and Sharon Fruit combined with yellow plum and sugar syrup were delicious. The syrup, incidentally, was made by dissolving 200g of the sugar replacement in 300ml water, brought to a boil with a large squeeze of lemon juice and then allowed to cool after the addition of the passion fruit.

Tip of the Day

The turkey turned out perfectly, but the gravy's a different story. Avoid botching the one recipe that guests pour over their entire Thanksgiving plates with these quick fixes.
