That is an excellent resource! Thanks for sharing the link!

I was a bit disappointed to find out that all the lilikoi cookbooks were sold out within the first hour.

When making the lilikoi jam, can you freeze it instead of the canning procedure?

How long can you have a jar in the fridge while using it?

I so excited that my vine is finally producing!!!!

Thanks!

It's also very good just scooped into my morning protien shake, with some mango almond milk, a little plain greek yogurt, some protien powder of choice and some chia seed. soooooo ono!

Ours are falling everywhere, and it's like an Easter Egg hunt daily picking them up!

As to the jam, I'm not certain you can freeze it once made, however, I squeeze all the juice out in cheesecloth, and freeze the pure juice for the "off season".

Maybe freeze the extra juice (after you make your jam), and save it to make more jam when you run out of what you have? Just a suggestion. Isn't it the most beautiful color in a jar or bottle!?!

I made three bottles of lilikoi syrup last week. Our mo'opuna made fresh juice all weekend! LOVE IT.[:p]

You can freeze both agar & pectin jams, both cooked & non cooked freezer recipes... (usually uncooked recipes are a tad "thinner" & lighter bodied than cooked recipes)
Most storage guides are 1-2 month refrigerator, ~1 year ftreezer

I have a friend who made some lilikoi swipe, and I was totally impressed by how good it was.
Tiny bubbles!

Too bad I quit drinking.

Mmmmmmm lilikoi. Such an awesome flavor.....when I make my lilikoi cheesecake, I like to do a standard new York style, and then top it with a lilikoi reduction sauce! So onolicious!

Crust
2 pkg plain Graham cracka
1stick butta melted

For the cheesecake

3 pkg cream cheese
One cup sugar
1 tb spoon flour
4 egg yolks
1tsp vanilla
Grated rind of one Meyer lemon

No forget to pre heat um eh? Tree fitty

Crush Graham crackers and mix um wit da butta. Press da mixture into to cheesecake pan (I like to use a spring form, but pie tin will do. I've also used a cast iron skillet) press it down firm wit da kine spoon, up da sides too if can.

Combine 3 packages cream cheese with 1 cup powdered suga untill smooth. Next add the flour. Then egg yolks and vanilla.

Pour da kine cheesecake batter into da pan. Smell da ono vanilla. Oh it smells so good! Smooth um out and grate your Meyer lemon on top, just a thin layer, k?

Pop dat Bugga in da oven for about 1 hour.

Lilikoi reduction sauce!
Yum yum yum yum

1/2 cup FRESH lilikoi juice
1 stick butta
1 more egg yolk
1/2 cup suga

Put um all in one sauce pan on simmer, and jus let um simmer boo. Stirring occasionally until it thickens up nice. Give um a taste! So ono!

Afta you take out da cheesecake let um cool. Before you pour da sauce on top heat it jus a little so it will pour smooth. Let um cool all the way, and bam, dea you go....time to grind

[] On a positive note...One of the wonderful things about Hawai'i is our lilikoi (passion fruit). "Tis the season". The recipes here are worthy of awards! Mahalo to all for sharing.

In this day and age of bitching and moaning (e kala mai for the language), and proffering our respective positions, can we all agree that lilikoi is the "fruit of the Gods"? Can I get an "Amen"? How about a "Mahalo, Ke Akua"?

Have a lovely evening all. I hope you have access to some of our lilikoi.
