Other than that I think this recipe is good to go. I hope you like it.<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-22872683216844039112009-11-01T01:34:43.747-05:002009-11-01T01:34:43.747-05:00That looks wonderful!

I LOVE apples, I'll give this recipe a try one of this day and maybe with asian pears too, YUM!!!

While you would have to slice it with a knife the texture should be really close to steak.<br /><br />Since you need to slice the fruit, or vegetable very thinly it needs to be firm enough to hold its shape but that is the only requirement. I also have beet and fennel on my list to try as carpaccio. Asian pear would be a really nice carpaccio, but a lot like apple in terms of taste and texture. However, it could be a good mix of color on a plate with the apple. Portabello mushroom may also work but would need to have the gills removed and be sliced with a knife.<br /><br />If you try carpaccio with the persimmons please let me know how it works.<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-86387690515325263592009-10-31T21:57:31.233-04:002009-10-31T21:57:31.233-04:00I'll definitely check out the blog, sounds fun...I'll definitely check out the blog, sounds fun.<br /><br />What about carpaccio with persimmons? Would that work??? They're divine in flavor and have a sort of meaty fleshy texture...I'm totally new to this world of carpaccio...Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02114977921830686539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-56659598734918258882009-10-31T21:50:05.652-04:002009-10-31T21:50:05.652-04:00Rose,
Thanks so much for the nice compliment. :) ...Rose,<br /><br />Thanks so much for the nice compliment. :) <br /><br />You can make the sauce in advance for entertaining. If you hold the apples very long in the acidulated water they will become soft (which may not be bad). I was also thinking a nice tuft of lightly dressing micro greens or baby arugula in the center of the platter would be nice (but didn't have any on hand).<br /><br />I love apple cider too. Such a wonderful flavor punch. Have you tried making Italian soda with it by adding Pelligrino? I just saw it on another website (Your Vegan Mom) on Friday and tried it. It is really good. There is a link to that blog on mine if you want to check it out.<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-89766166528438725642009-10-31T21:35:27.251-04:002009-10-31T21:35:27.251-04:00This is pretty and is such an interesting and refi...This is pretty and is such an interesting and refined thing to serve.
