Aesthetically and for their richness of flavour. Feels more sophisticated and deeper than many common plums to my part of the world, like yellow or Doris.
Their green streaks are a beautiful complement to deep purples and blood reds - their insides are also lovely and bloody often. Tart little skins, they seem to remain more taut and less watery than many and tend to have a cute and satisfying nub at the end; heart shaped and juicy. :)
if theres one thing i can't stand it's a one-dimensional ass piece of fruit. Like on that can only play on one note, has no depth in flavor. A bosc pear for example (abs hate them, worst fruit!!)
but plums are sweeet, sour, divinely juicy
I did this last night and it was a hilarious voyeuristic joy. A great tale of intimacy, being a perv and a simp, and shames. High levels of erotic creativity and ridiculousness coming Live from 1909 Ireland. “Time fly on, fly on quickly! I want to go back to my love, my life, my star, my little strange-eyed Ireland!”
Mysterious and ethereal critters. They can become quite tame and almost walk????
I love them so much.
they travel from the rivers out to sea then to an unknown place near Tonga to spawn and die; the babies or larvae then find their way back to their ancestral rivers hundreds of kilometres away riding ocean currents…
