How lucky you were to get a behind the scenes look at how to make their specialties.<br /><br />And your strawberry jam made me just itch to get making my own. Strawberries aren't ripe here yet, though. We usually make it over the Fourth of July weekend. We are a whole holiday behind you!Lauriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05054086165490704114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206051023554402908.post-86645719505072671642009-05-28T23:20:22.919-04:002009-05-28T23:20:22.919-04:00I grew up eating these.

I love the salty, spicy flavor against the sweetness of the plantains - in case you are ever looking for a different sauce to serve them with :)Josiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04225094735980337422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206051023554402908.post-77645346266752386732009-05-27T20:14:47.739-04:002009-05-27T20:14:47.739-04:00Plantains...I pretty much grew up with it.
