Notes

For many the name of "loquat" may sound unknown, but if I say "nispero", that will immediately ring a bell for those who live/d or traveled to Italy or Spain. It is ready to be picked in May. The taste is sweet and slightly sour at the same time. Its seeds seem to be polished in gold. Simply beautiful! My neighbor's nispero tree is offering so much fruit that one year, several thick branches felt under the weight of the fruits. It is exactly the season when I receive a large quantity of the fruit and I magically pickle and can them to be opened at Christmas time. There is an immense pleasure of enjoying these May fruit during the cold season and adding up the probiotic qualities of the pickling and fermentation process. In fact, pickling nisperos is the number one skill that I learned during the first lockdown in Catalonia following a live streaming of Robert Ruiz Moreno from LOV Ferments (Barcelona). Moltes gracies, Robert! If you don't have loquats/nisperos, use plums, apricots, peach or any fruit that you may like to experiment and play.
