Ok let’s start!Īs you can see, I’m still using the cardboard pompom maker I made for the previous pompoms and it’s now looking decidedly shabby in the photos. The strawberry pompom is probably the easiest one so you can make a few in no time and kids will love a handful of them. Sorry for not including tuts for everything but I think this post is going to be a very long one …… Out of these fruit pompoms, I’ve managed step-by-step tutorial pics for the strawberry, kiwi, lemon and watermelon with some diagrams and trimming tips. Some designs are very easy to make, so hope you have a go! If you’re feeling a bit deficient in vitamin C after a long winter like us, this is where we’ll top up our extra fruit portions! They make great play foods that are soft to hold and colorful to the eye. To celebrate, we’re going all tutti frutti this week! Ok, skip the promo (blush!) and now on to the pompoms. Hoe joods is Pom?, Bouillon!, fall 56–60.It’s been quiet here recently as we’re still mostly working on getting our fruity Apple & Pear Houses ready over at Rock & Pebble, but I see them all coming together nicely and they might even be ready to ship in less than a couple of weeks now.

Other Dutch cities such as Rotterdam and The Hague have a growing number of caterers, eateries and take-aways. In Amsterdam alone there are over 120 establishments serving Surinamese food. The basic preparation method is sautéed chicken pieces between two layers of raw, grated pomtajer, mixed with citrus juice and a sauce made from oil or margarine, onions, tomatoes, salt, pepper and nutmeg, baked in an oven until the pom becomes golden brown. The first published description of pom comes from the Encyclopedie van Nederlandsch West-Indië (1914–1917) which describes the dish as follows: ‘the big tajer, of which the stalk grows above the earth, is grated and treated with the juice of bitter oranges, afterwards with chicken or fish, made into a pie, which dish is known as pom.’ The main stem or corm is most frequently designated as pomtajer or pongtaya (lit. Only the latter is indigenous, and although all plant parts are edible, only the underground part of the main stem is used as an ingredient in preparing pom. Pom combines three central ingredients: chicken, citrus juice and pomtajer ( Xanthosoma sagittifolium). Because the potato did not grow in Suriname and had to be imported it was soon replaced with the root of the tayer plant. It was introduced by the Portuguese-Jewish plantation owners as the Portuguese potato (" pomme de terre") oven dish. Within the Surinamese community pom is frequently referred to as a dish of Creole or Jewish origin. Within the Surinamese community, in both Suriname and The Netherlands, pom is the most popular and best known festive dish. Pom is a Surinamese oven dish made using Arrowleaf elephant ear root, locally called " pomtajer".
