The Queen Garnet plum is considered by many the crown jewel of Australian plums. Jam-packed with seven times more antioxidants than other plum varieties, the Queen Garnet is now in season and available from major and independent retailers across Australia.
Growers including Rullo Farms in Shepparton, Victoria, this year have reported a record-breaking growing season with the crop producing biggest harvest since commercial production began in 2014.
Queen Garnet plums hold their firm, robust shape when prepared for fresh fruit salads and works well when blended through smoothies and copious cooked sweet and savoury dishes.
When stored in the fridge, their shelf life can be prolonged for up to two weeks. While best eaten crisp and fresh, they’re are a tasty and super-healthy choice for picnics and snacking.
Featuring the signature dark, purple flesh, this sweet and sharp Plum Tarte Tatin recipe is sure to delight the fussiest of foodies. The finished Tarte Tatin is visually striking as plum holds its firm shape while baking; and we adore it’s regal crimson colour. We think it’s the perfect autumnal dessert.
