Pastéis de Nata |
I'd eat custard all the time if it wasn't for the health culture bogeymen. Even with sporadic research cracks in the monolithic legend and rethinking the effect of dietary cholesterol in some food sources, the ingrained and authority pampered inhibition still robotically lingers.

That reminds me of renewed interest in pawpaws. They are a native tree where I live, and there are some behind my old childhood house. I am planting some seeds from fruits picked from there.
Well, it has been mentioned that a Founding Father became a fan of the pawpaw. He purportedly said they taste like custard.

Don't even remember the experience of the taste itself, apart from our parents identifying it was such and the four of us more or less agreeing that it was kind of "banana-like". A slight twinge of pineapple, too, is trying to protrude in my thoughts, but it's probably the separate memory of some other oddball fruit at a different time trying to commingle with it. - - - |
