Cactus Relish
Whether you eat relish or not, you must give props to the winners of the Taste of Wilmington.
The secret ingredient – cactus – showed up in a relish, a spring greens salad, a ceviche and even a sugar cookie dessert.
I ate cactus last night at Casa Poblana in Emeryville. The steak was tough, not as good as usual, but the nopale was delicious, and the margarita was fantastic.
