Comments on: How an ugly Ugli spoiled SHF no.8 http://www.deliciousdays.com/archives/2005/05/20/the-ugly-ugli/ (c) delicious:days Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:24:51 +0000 hourly 1 By: Lyn http://www.deliciousdays.com/archives/2005/05/20/the-ugly-ugli/#comment-359 Lyn Thu, 09 Jun 2005 18:53:15 +0000 http://www.deliciousdays.com/archives/2005/05/19/how-the-ugly-ugli-let-us-downshf/#comment-359 I simply love your photos. Too bad about the Ugli fruit recipe. I almost didn't post my pomelo one as I wasn't as happy with it as I could have been. I love your bloge so much, I've added it to my blogroll and will be back on a regular basis. I simply love your photos. Too bad about the Ugli fruit recipe.

Even though we had to call off the event/our contribution, it was still fun to get to know a new fruit and experiment with it :) Hi Alice,

You always have such nice recipes, this one will quickly be forgotten or continually a reminder for me to stay away from the Ugli fruit. Your IMBB on the other hand made up for it all!

Wonderful photos! Looks like your photography can turn the ugli fruit into a beauty. : ) Sorry the sorbet didn't turn out, but at least you had a learning experience! Wonderful photos!

Perhaps Ugli's are still a bit too exotic for German markets ;) Hi ALTAF, Thank you. Re: bread, this is an area yet to be fully explored by us. A few attempts we have made, mostly inspired by <a href="http://www.20six.de/Chili_und_Ciabatta/" rel="nofollow">Petra's great blog and recipes</a>, but these have not made it to an article yet... ;) Hi Ana, Thank you! The previous digital camera we had would also only allow to get as close as 15-20cm to the object. With our last years vacation, we decided to have a good enough reason to purchase a new camera, which now allows for much better natural macro shots. The grated zest I usually add to the mix before bringing it to the boil, with this one, however, the stand owner couldn't tell me if it was treated/untreated so I didn't consider it...but you're right it would have likely made the difference. Kaba, Nic

Well I'm in the same boat. My entry was (and is) tasty but flopped...so no entry. I know that I am repeating everybody here, but I love your pictures. I love the sharp close-ups. And only now I noticed that you have two pictures of the ugly fruit one fading into anther. Beautiful effect. I've tried doing close-ups, but mine always get fuzzy, even when I program the camera for close-ups. The closer I can do is 20cm away which is not that close, lets face it. I guess I deserve what I get. It was about a year-and-a-half ago that I finally decided to spend some money in a digital camera and I bough the cheapest on the market. Dang! As per ugly fruit I have it before and I must say I loved the taste. You say it was not intense enough for sorbet. Did your recipe include the grated rind? I find that what gives the citrus intensity into any recipe is the rind not just the juice. Sorry to read about your entry Nicky & Oliver. Well I'm in the same boat.
