Tahitian Mango Jam
During our recent stay in the islands of Tahiti, we have had plenty of delicious locally made jam. The main flavours were pineapple (always a favourite of mine), guava, some of kind of citrus like lime or grapefruit, and mango. Well, we even had an amazing coconut jam that I will have to try and…

However, to my Italian taste buds it wasn’t and I was literally blown away but how good these two flavours were together! This jam has become…

I was really thrilled by this challenge! I make some sauces…

Verrine Fraicheur
