Here's my latest idea ..... when possible, I've been taking my left over fruit from breakfast, blending it and sticking it in the freezer to garnish future fruit dishes (and by blending I just mean sticking in the boat motor and giving it a whizz).
For example - yesterday I made a honeydew, mint, lime and ginger salad. The left overs are now a sorbet. I'll probably add a ball of it to my next chilled soup.
This morning I went out onto our field and picked a basket full of blackberries. I served them "nekkid" but with a berry, citrus, yoghurt pour on the side. What was left is now in the freezer and I'll probably add a ball of it to my poached pears with raspberry coulis.
I'm figuring this is a way to use up everything and have a "fancy" garnish ready to go.
