mavi yemişli enginar

artichoke heart with blueberry

When my next door neighbor Yonca, in a typical hallway talk, asked me whether I ever tried artichoke with cranberry. So I decided to use the artichoke I bought from the farmers market in line with her suggestion.

Genellikle, marketlerde ve kuru yemişçilerde satılan o pırıl pırıl, koyu kırmızı kuru yabanmersini şekerle işlenmiş oluyor. Ben de mümkün olduğu kadar kendi kullandığımın üstüne bir de gizli şekerleri eklememeye çalıştığım için kuru mavi yemiş kullanmaya karar verdim. Hem mayhoşluğuyla hem de kattığı hafif morumsu renkle enginara çok yakıştı. 🙂
