Winter is citrus season here on the island and we can get the most delicious blood oranges, pomelos, lemons and my beloved persimmon. I grow up eating this in Brasil and every time I find them in the supermarkets around the world it brings me back to afternoons with my dad eating those fresh and perfectly sweet and delicious fruit. What does one do with a bag of oranges and persimmon? Spread it out on a few boards and graze away, open a bottle of delicious Greek chardonnay and voilà; the perfect winter afternoon in our backyard.

Candied Orange Dipped in Dark Chocolate
I had the idea for these when I saw candied fruit slices decorating a beautiful cake. I’ll make those to put on my next cake, I thought.
