RE: FORAGING IN TEXAS – PRICKLY PEAR

in #foraging7 years ago

my great grandparents used to have a Hacienda in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, i used to spend my summer vacations as a child there, once, all the family went prickly pear picking, and brought home buckets of the stuff, the red ones, although i prefer the green variety more popular around my area

Very nice memories and I am glad to hear that you have a special kind that you prefer. The variety can be amazing sometimes. Thanks!

There is a very tart kind used for salsas and cooking, it's called xoconostle
