god only knows what happened this year but none of my passionfruit rippened in summer and they have just started turning purple nowi just stripped the whole vine and it appears there were way more than i thought! anyhow so because some are slightly under ripe can i just scoop out all the flesh and add some sugar to sweeten, otherwise they are very tart, i would like to either freeze the pulp or do something with it so need some ideas please!

Wash the skins.. leave to dry in a colander or similar, then place them into a bag, seal and into the freezer - they'll keep better when frozen that way.. and all you need to do is thaw out whatever number you want to use.. and continue using them as if they were fresh..

if you think you may only use a small amount at a time , freeze in ice cube trays. When freeze pop into bags and back into the freeze.

Freeze the pulp and use later. By the way just thought I would mention that for the fruit to be properly ripe you should wait till they fall off the vine rather than pick them. lucky you my passion fruit didn t do at all well this year

hope this help, have tried some of these are some are past posting
Mock raspsberry jam using kiwifriut 1 small bottle of Raspberry Quench ( or thriftee,) 6 pounds sugar, 5 pounds Kiwi Fruit. Boil all together until it set (test regularly)
Persimmon jam 3 persimmons 1 cups white sugar 2 tsp vanilla extract 1 Tbs lemon juice 2 tsp finely grated lemon zest Peel and chop the fruit. Combine the fruit with the sugar and vanilla in a saucepan and stir constantly over a high heat until thickened. This will take approximately 30 minutes. Add the lemon juice and zest then spoon into sterilised jars.
Rhubarb Jam: 1kg red rhubarb, wiped clean and cut into 2cm lengths 1kg caster sugar 1 vanilla bean, cut lengthwise 3 tablespoons lemon juice, strained In a large bowl, combine the rhubarb, sugar and vanilla bean. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. Transfer the rhubarb mixture to a jam pot or large, heavy-based saucepan and stir over a low heat until the sugar dissolves then increase the heat to full. Allow the jam to boil rapidly, stirring frequently. When smaller bubbles begin to appear, add the lemon juice. Use a sugar thermometer (it should reach 105c) or simply a dollop of jam on a cool plate to test for setting point. A slight skin will form on set jam when left on a cold plate for a couple of minutes. Pour the jam through a jam funnel into hot, sterilised jars and place lids on while still hot. Makes around 3 x 250ml jars.
Tamarillo Jam
Ingredients
MAKES 2 CUPS
6 plump tamarillos 2 cups water 4 cups white sugar
Method
Cut fruit in half. Place in a large saucepan with the water. Bring to the boil. Remove tamarillo skins and return fruit to water. Simmer for 5 minutes. Mash fruit, add the sugar and boil again for 10 minutes. Stir frequently and test for setting, then cool slightly. Pour into sterilised jars and seal.

Thanks so much pam.delilah - do you think I could try the easy 'passionfruit' recipe using kiwifruit (if I stuff up then then I won't be too worried as not too much ingredients).if so, would quantity be 6 kiwifruit?

Wash the skins. leave to dry in a colander or similar, then place them into a bag, seal and into the freezer - they'll keep better when frozen that way. and all you need to do is thaw out whatever number you want to use. and continue using them as if they were fresh.
Place eggs, yolks and sugar in microwave jug or bowl.
Whisk till well combined.
Add passionfruit pulp and butter and stir.
Microwave uncovered on MED for 6-10 mins whisking every minute or until thick enough to coast a spoon.
Pour into sterilised jars and seal. Refrigerate to cool. 6-8 Passionfruit make about 3/4 cup.
For the Passion Fruit Curd: 2 eggs 125ml/4fl oz passion fruit pulp 80g/3oz caster sugar 60g/2oz unsalted butter, softened
To make the passion fruit curd, place the eggs, passion fruit and sugar in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir continuously with a wooden spoon for 8 minutes, until thick, then remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Leave to cool

Did they have any pulp? . My passionfruit had heaps of nice fruit then fruited two more very late fruit. But there was nothing inside those, at all. I get very precious with my pulp, I usually have lots over at the next fruiting. I am trying to eke it out to last this season, decided not to hold back.
