Yesterday I dropped Jim off at the airport for Part II of the certification training he's attending. Since I was down in that area, I popped over to my favorite place to get produce, Joe Randazzo's. The place was packed when I was in there, and I was probably one of very few caucasian people in there. That's why I love the place! You'd think you were halfway around the world every time you visit. The people are so diverse and the produce they carry is as well. So, here's where I need your help. I picked up or considered picking up a few different vegetable items that I have never heard of. They are the opo squash, boniato, and eddos. I think both the boniato and eddos are root vegetables, so I will cook them accordingly, but if any of you REALLY know what you're supposed to do with these, give me a shout!
I always try to buy something that is new to me every time I go in. I wait until someone else is getting one out of the bin, and ask them how it is used and prepared. Unfortunately, more often than not, the person doesn't speak english so I end up tracking stuff down on the internet. I've found some info on the boniato but I'd love to hear from someone who's experienced these 'new' things.
I will have to post pictures of Joe's. I come home with a trunk full of produce for about a quarter of what I would have spent on sale at the grocery store.
