Mango Dash: THE VARIETIES OF LITCHI AND It's CULTIVARS - 0 views

  •  
    The summer season each year brings wafting memories of a juicy and luscious fruit called litchi. The origins of Litchi lie in southern China where as a crop it has been cultivated uninterruptedly for close to 2500 years. Its geographical propagation has been rather slow, which is due to the short life-span of its seed and the peculiar soil and climatic requirements associated with the plant.A classical instance of this is India which is the second largest producer just behind China, but litchi farming is chronologically speaking, very recent having been introduced only sometime in the middle of the 1700's. Together China and India between themselves produce more than 90% of the world's Litchi, leaving the rest of the world far behind. In the backdrop of all this it is interesting to know the various cultivars and varieties which dot the world of Litchi farming. Most or all of them have their genesis probably in China but have been suitably bred and modified to thrive in countries of their adoption. The terms 'cultivar' and 'variety' have often been used interchangeably but this convention often seems to ignore the obvious differences which exist between the two. A 'cultivar' is bred with the help of vegetative propagation, which could include cutting, grafting,budding and tissue culture and is a product of human effort and ingenuity. A 'variety' on the other hand is a natural phenomenon and is bred through seedlings. A 'variety' will always produce clones of the parent plant, but in a cultivar,there may be slight variation in a progeny compared to the parent particularly in the case of hybrids. The Litchi cultivars in India number about 40 out of which around 12 or 13 are commercially cultivated.The same cultivar or variety may be known by different names in various parts of the country. In China there are about 200 known cultivars although only 20 or so are in commercial farming, which means the genetic repository is much more widespread compared to India but

Super Pupper Party -Time to unleash your pet dogs! - Gossip Ki Galliyan - 0 views

  •  
    Ugghhh!! Summers are not just here but dreadfully taking a toll on all of us. We humans can at least choose to decide on our recreations to drive away our summer blues. But, what about your darling pet dogs? They too might be longing for some entertaining activities but can't express. I am sure you all must be deeply in love with your fur pals and already be doing anything and everything to keep them happy and healthy. But, just imagine those glaring eyes in your locality when you take your dog for a stroll. I am sure you must have come across such people because of whom you don't feel comfortable taking your dogs to public places. Also, if you do take your dog out, the poor thing must wear a leash. Can you imagine putting your pet in the community pool? Your pet might be clean and disciplined. But other people are not so considerate.

Are Super-Tuscans Still Super? | Food & Wine - 0 views

  • What was the taste that these wines, made all over the place from all kinds of grapes, could be expected to share? Was it really place—or its absence—that was the trouble with Super-Tuscans, or was it something else?
    • yonq2k
       
      her answer is not place but people (winemaker)
  • In Chianti Classico, the hills can be quite steep, while in coastal Maremma it’s all flat maritime plains, though both are bisected by the same narrow roads.
  • of all the 2001 wines, the only one he’d bought so far was Redigaffi, the Super-Tuscan Merlot from Tua Rita winery. "I think it’s a very sexy expression of Merlot," Scott explained
  • ...31 more annotations...
  • the founder of Castello dei Rampolla, the late Alceo di Napoli Rampolla, was one of the region’s great Bordeaux varietal pioneers, having planted his first Cabernet Sauvignon vines some 30 years ago—grafted off vines from Château Lafite Rothschild.
  • his two Super-Tuscans, Sammarco (first created in 1980) and Vigna d’Alceo (launched in 1996)
  • Alceo’s son, Luca di Napoli Rampolla
  • The 2002 vintage was considered very difficult throughout Tuscany. "We didn’t produce a d’Alceo, so our basic Chianti was mostly Cabernet from that vineyard,
    • yonq2k
       
      then he shouldn't have labelled it as chianti
  • As far as I knew, a predominantly Cabernet wine still wasn’t legal. How had Luca gotten his Chianti approved? It was easy, Luca replied with a smile. "They didn’t ask what was in it and we didn’t say." Besides, he added "It was a very good wine."
  • Sammarco (a Cabernet and Sangiovese blend that was one of the first Super- Tuscans)
  • Though nearly 11 years old, the wine was still quite youthful and bright, with a lively acidity. It didn’t taste like a Napa Cab—the acidity was too high—nor for that matter like a wine from Bordeaux. Were we experiencing the taste of Tuscany, or simply the vision of Alceo?
  • Giovanni said. "We want our wines to taste of Bolgheri." (Had he heard the criticism that Super- Tuscans lacked a sense of place?)
  • Giovanni Folonari is from one of Italy’s oldest winemaking families—the Folonaris have been producing wine since the 1700s.
  • crisp, refreshing 2005 Bolgheri Vermentino
  • Tenuta San Guido, producer of Sassicaia, a Cabernet blend created in 1948 (1968 was the first public vintage)
  • Marchese Nicolò Incisa della Rocchetta (the son of the winery’s founder, Mario Incisa della Rocchetta)
  • eight-pointed Sassicaia star set into raised wood on the cellar doors
  • The Marchese also favored a less opulent style of wine that is quite different from most Super-Tuscans today, which tend to be bigger, more extracted, more ripe
  • 2003 pleasant but lacking in depth; the 2005 was much bigger and richer; but overall I preferred the as-yet-unreleased 2004—a structured and elegant wine
  • Created in 1981 by Marchese Lodovico Antinori (brother of Piero Antinori and cousin of Nicolò Incisa)
  • Lodovico’s competitive answer to his cousin’s Sassicaia and his older brother’s Cabernet-based Solaia (whose first vintage debuted two years earlier)
  • Masseto, which had its first vintage in 1987, is an all-Merlot wine inspired by no less a bottling than Château Pétrus, which in great vintages it is said to equal.
  • Sassicaia tends to be structured and even austere while Ornellaia is softer, more approachable in its youth.
  • Tenuta dell’ Ornellaia (purchased by the Frescobaldi family about two years ago) was surrounded by a barbed-wire-topped fence and put me in mind of a white-collar prison.
  • San Quentin State Prison along with winery visits in Napa and Sonoma.
  • Heinz had been the winemaker in Château La Dominique in St-Émilion before taking the job
  • Masseto from the unmemorable 2002 vintage was, according to Heinz, "completely sold out" though a taste of it revealed a wine that was pleasant enough but without the richness, the depth and the texture of the previous vintage, or for that matter, the 2003 or the monumental 2004.
  • Riserva Rancia is consistently one of the best Chiantis in the world.
  • Maestro Raro, a Cabernet wine, and the all-Sangiovese wine Fontalloro
  • Giuseppe Mazzocolin and acclaimed winemaking consultant Franco Bernabei.
  • Fontalloro isn’t a "cult" Super-Tuscan (for one thing, at about $50 a bottle its price is too low), as it’s subtle and slow to reveal itself, although it ages beautifully, gaining in richness and texture.
  • These wines are not just the story of a vineyard or a grape but the story of a people who created something that is unique.
  • Manetti refused to add white grapes to his wine as dictated by the law back in the 1970s. Instead, he created a 100 percent Sangiovese in 1976 that he called Le Pergole Torte.
  • voluptuous Masseto to the earthy, minerally Redigaffi to the astonishingly elegant yet powerful 1998 Messorio
  • Super-Tuscans were never about a place or a particular terroir but instead were wines born of a vision, an individual’s resistance to the status quo. And the wines that retained the integrity of that original vision—wines like Redigaffi, d’Alceo, Masseto, Fontalloro and a few others—were still highly sought-after, still very good.

Mango Dash: Mango Juice Good for Dieting ? - 0 views

  •  
    Mango Juice each day for good overall health. Adding fruit, mangoes included, to your meal plans reduces your risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer, but also helps you control your weight. Choose firm mangoes with a fruity smell and once ripe, store in the refrigerator for one to two weeks. Mango Juice Eating fresh mango could help you lose weight when dieting, but opting for mango juice may not have the same benefits. Juice is much higher in sugar than chopped fruit, which results in a higher calorie content. In addition, fruit juice contains little to no fiber and does not offer the same satiety benefits that eating fresh fruit does. Choosing fresh mango instead of mango juice is a smarter decision if you are trying to lose weight. If you do decide to have a glass of mango juice, stick to one portion and be sure to balance your calorie intake for the day so that you stay within a healthy number for weight loss. Mango Juice Calories contains A half cup of sliced mango contains about 50 calories, making it an ideal choice for a weight-loss diet. To drop unwanted pounds, you must burn more calories than you eat. Adding foods that are low in calories allows you to fill your stomach without hindering your weight-loss goals. Mango Juice Fiber Nutrient Fiber is a nutrient that bulks up in your stomach, making you feel full for a small amount of calories. Mangoes contain a small amount of fiber, about 1 g per 1/2 cup sliced. Eating foods that contain fiber help you control your appetite because fiber digests slowly,Mango isn't a high-fiber food, but when eaten along with other fiber-containing foods, you create a filling and low-calorie meal that makes weight loss more likely. Mangoes Versatility Mango is a versatile fruit that makes a good addition to many dishes. Mango is naturally sweet and is a healthy snack that is a good alternative to candy, Mango also pairs well with shrimp and makes a low-calorie and healthy dessert as well.

Sardines - Among the healthiest foods - 0 views

    Here in Portugal we like to say we have the best fish in the whole world…Really fresh, caught in our shores, grilled or boiled or fried, but especially grilled… it is something we cannot do without. And one of our top choices is something that most people haven't tried. It's a cheap fish. It's not that big. There is plenty of it. Most people don't know it, but it's also a fish that has plenty of Omega 3, which makes it great for our health and our heart. So, what am I talking about? Sardines, of course.

    How to make fresh Mango Juice Mango Juice - Yes you heard it right..!! Just do yourself a favor by making homemade mango juice before you grab a bottle of slice / maaza and you will sure thank me enough for it :) My lil one enjoys fresh fruit juices and mango juice is always her favorite. Looking for variation to mango juice then check out mango Juice, Mango lemonade, mango lassi and mango milkshake recipes that I posted earlier. I am not crazy about mangoes but love mango Juice variety the most, whats your favorite variety of mango juice? Mango Juice Recipe - Ingredients Fresh Ripe Mango - 2 big comes to 2 cups when chopped Sugar - 2 tbsp Water - 1 cup Ice cubes - few Mangoes lover and have had mangoes in many recipes like mango juice, Mango Drinks, aam ka panna, mango lassi, mango dash and so on. but my all time favorite way of having mangoes is mango juice. according to me, if you want to have real taste of mangoes then don't look anywhere else and just go for mango juice. If given an option between having mango slices and mango juice then i would happily go for mango juice. it looks that i am kind of becoming fanatic about mango juice. actually it was too good as the organic variety of Alphonso mangoes were very delicious. so you have to excuse me if you feel i am little biased about the mango juice. Few suggestions for making mango juice: 1. since we want to taste the original flavor of mango then better not to add any other ingredient in the juice. 2. use sweet and mangoes having a firm juicy pulp like Alphonso. avoid fibrous mangoes. 3. while you are making the mango juice then you can consider leaving few bite size mango pieces intact. because when you are having mango juice then these mango pieces comes as a surprise and make your drink more richer and yummy.

Mango Dash: Mango Fruit One of The Most Powerful and Universally Beneficial Health - 0 views

  •  
    While it has reached popularity for its naturally sweet taste, there are a lot of things that the average consumer probably doesn't know about this tropical fruit and its vast health benefits. The first has to do with digestive health, and is probably one of the most powerful and universally beneficial reasons to keep it in your daily diet. Mango Juice: Mango fruit Juice as a natural laxative and regulator- Mango is one of the most potent natural laxatives you'll find. Even in it's dried form, mango can help to regulate the elimination process. This is because it has numerous beneficial enzymes which help to move things along, while it also contains concentrated amounts of the types of fiber that help move things along the digestive tract more quickly. Since it's natural, you don't get the typical cramping and discomfort you'd get with a commercial laxative. It simply helps to both clean the intestines and colon while also encouraging these important elimination organs to pass the food or blockages through more quickly. Incorporating a whole mango (medium sized) into your diet a few times a week can really make a difference in your digestive comfort by reducing the bloating, gas and discomfort that typically accompanies irregularity. Mango Juice: Mango fruit Juice are alkalizing and improve digestive- It may seem contradictory to logic since these fruits are very sweet, but mangos are actually quite alkalizing inside the body. This may explain why they are so soothing to the digestive tract and help to relive constipation and IBS so comfortably. They help reduce excessive stomach acid and acid indigestion as well, and create an alkaline environment. This may also be part of why they have an anti-inflammatory effect on skin conditions like acne. Mango Juice: Mango fruit Juice are abundant in vitamin E and iron- Most people only expect to find iron and vitamin E in grains and meats, however mangos are surprisingly rich in both. Iron
