G had no school
today. So G and I went for grocery together. He loves doing grocery with me
or sometimes with his dad over the weekend. He likes to explore about food and
fresh ingredients. He saw fresh apricots on the shelf.
“
What fruit is this, Mom?” G asked me.
“It’s
apricot. When you were young I liked to put dried apricot in your snacks box to
school.” I replied.
“Oh
I see. Can you buy them, please? I want to try fresh apricot.” He asked.
“Sure!
Those stone fruits are nice when there’re cooked. I’ll let you try fresh
apricot and bake some apricot tarts later” I replied.
When we arrived
home, he tried it right away and he said “Yummy,mom!”.
I told him. “it
will be nicer if we bake or cook them because the sugar in a fruit gets caramelized and they become sweeter and more fragrant.” After finished baking we had two tarts each.
