Thanks for the EP honor! I so wish I weren't back on the road again traveling this week. The recipes for testing look phenomenal!
Though the Summer Plum Pudding is intriguing, I'm always interested in trying a new pie crust, so I'll try the Caramelized Plum Ravioli. If no one else wants to try the Summer Plum Pudding, I'd be happy to try that too.
Anything left?
This is from your friendly editors at Food52.
added about 1 year agoYes, the Summer Plum Pudding and the Caramelized Plum Ravioli are still up for grabs.
I'll take the summer plum pudding! ;)
I'd like to try the Sugar Plum Sherbet, if that's OK with Antonia.
Sure, please do! ;o)
Thank you, AJ.
I am eager to test the Stone cold soup. I have already made another of Sagegreen's fruit recipes, and it is terrific!
Thanks for selecting this one as an EP candidate. You can make it without the sapa. I am interested in any feedback you can offer.
I'm happy to try a second one . . the Sugar Plum Sherbet, if no one else wants it. ;o)
This is from your friendly editors at Food52.
added about 1 year agoActually four recipes! Summer Plum Pudding, Stone Cold Soup, Tarte aux Quetches, Sugar Plum Sherbet with Star Anise
I'd love to test Tarte aux Quetsches (Italian Plum Tart), please.
I don't think anyone's taken the plum ravioli yet either.

added about 1 year agoSorry, cheese1227 -- yes, the Caramelized Plum Ravioli is still available for testing!
This is from your friendly editors at Food52.
added about 1 year agoFive great recipes still available: Sage Infused Plum-Blackberry-Honey-Gelato, Summer Plum Pudding, Stone Cold Soup, Tarte aux Quetches, Sugar Plum Sherbet with Star Anise. Which one do you want to test?
I'd love to do the Red Wine-Honey Plum Sauce. Thanks!
I forgot to mention in the recipe that it takes several hours of refrigeration for the flavors to come into "focus" --I made it at night, and put it in the fridge.The next morning it was more flavorful than when I tasted it the night before. This is true of so many recipes, flavors "bloom" during a rest.
Bruschetta with plums, serrano ham and ricotta, please!
Sage infused Plum, Blackberry, Honey Gelato is hopefully mine to test!
Always so honored to get an EP!! I would love to try the Plum Tart/Crisp, thank you!
Plum and blueberry custard tart! that sounds wonderful!
Sorry I have to sit out of testing this week. Darn that day job is calling!
me, too!
I'd like the spiced plum cheese round. Thanks bunches!
simple plum cake please!
Plum Prosecco Sorbet please!
Thanks for testing, nannydeb; I hope you like it!
plum & ricotta crostini, please!
Spiced Plum and Port Jam, please! And thank you!!! ;o)
Jewish Plum Soup with Sour Cream please!
Lucky you...this sounds amazing!!
I agree - I'm very excited to make this one!
