Where to buy rare herbs and fruits?
I want to make a traditional Ecuadorian drink called colada morada, and I have NO IDEA where to find some of the ingredients.
Here's what I need:
Scientific name - common name (part I need for the recipe)
Solanum quitoense - naranjilla, lulo (fruit)
Myrcianthes hallii - arrayan (leaf)
Amaranthus caudatus - ataco, amaranth (whole reddish purlple flowering head)
Ocotea quixos - ishpingo, american cinnamon (fruit/flower calyx)
Vaccinium myttillus - mortino, andean blue berry, bilberry (fruit)
Carica pentagona - babaco, mountain papaya, champagne fruit (fruit)
Aloysia triphylla - hierba luisa, lemon verbena (leaf)
I would like to find it all in fresh form, but the herbs I would take dried if nothing else is available. If anyone has info on where to buy or at least look for these ingredients, I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance!
I'm in Oregon... not much of an Ecuadorian population here.
Amaranthus (grown as an ornamental) and lemon verbena (vervain) are easy to grow, though you might have to get the seeds over the internet.
You can buy amaranth seed ready to cook and eat at a natural food store. I'm not sure if it's the seed you're interested in.
I seem to recall having seen lemon verbena at a specialty grocer that had a lot of herbs during the season. You might find it at a farmer's market if there is a booth like that.
The others I don't know anything about, and there is no Ecuadoran population in my area.
