Rambutan! Tasty tasty fruit…
Although this is not what is looks like when it is ripe and just picked…Apparently the dark brown-ness happens if it isn’t refrigerated or eaten within days of picking…
BUT
still so tasty…
Kind of like a green grape crossed with a lychee…
Texture is a cross between a peeled grape and a gummy bear- bouncy but not rubbery…
Sweet and very much a dessert flavor….
Yum.
Ok… A picture without the googly eyes:
and now for the closeup….
(you peel them by scoring them around the middle with a knife and then prying the skin off… there is an almond shaped nut/seed in the middle…don’t eat the seed…)
