Hi Annette, Thanks for the wishes. Seems it's been a looong time since you've seen cashews being processed in Goa! There are various gadgets/machinery now available here for juice extraction. Definitely no need to stamp & stomp ;-) At the recently held Konkan Fruit Festival there were on display manual/electric machines for bulk chopping of cashew, a screw press - to extract juice, even one to de-seed kokum (binda)
btw, even if our recipe & 'secrets' were revealed, I doubt even half % of those reading it would go through the considerable labour (starting with collecting the fruit) & processes needed to produce good wine. It's no joke making wine, honestly. In any case no revelations forthcoming but just one advice - if you put in the effort, mother nature helps! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Visit Loumel's Cottage Crafts, http://loumels.swiki.net >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ----- Original Message ----- From: ANNETTE D'SOUZA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2005 11:40 AM Subject: RE: [saligaonet] Loumel's, a prize? > >(Right, it's not feni!)
