I wish you could taste these delicious fruits! I did my best to share about my new and wonderful taste experiences. Eating low fat raw vegan is anything but boring, here is a sampling of fall/winter fruit in Maui, Hawaii.\r
\r
1. Abiu\r
- The outside is quite smooth, but strong like leather or plastic, and contains a sticky latex\r
- The inside is jelly-like, translucent flesh\r
- The taste is really sugary with an almost vanilla, caramel flavour\r
- Ive read about calories ranging from 62-140 per 100g of edible flesh\r
\r
2. Surinam Cherry\r
- Comes from a large shrub\r
- Has many ribs, is thin skinned, and contains 1-3 seeds\r
- Taste is quite tart, however the darker, softer ones (the ones that are easier to pick off the plant) are sweeter\r
- Check underneath because bugs like to hang out in their little hole\r
- Ive read calories are 43--51 per 100g edible portion, or 57 calories per 1 cup (173 g)\r
\r
\r
3. Velvet Apple (aka Mabola)\r
- Outside is really like velvet in texture\r
- Potent scent and taste - very florally\r
- Inside texture is kind of like a cheese and inside there is no big pit/ or seed\r
- Calories are between 70 and 80 calories each or 500 cal/ 100g\r
\r
\r
4. Longan (aka Dragon Eye)\r
- Has a thin, firm shell, like a bark\r
- Translucent white flesh inside\r
- Related to lychees and are similar, but theyre sweeter and not as juicy\r
- Black seed inside, which you dont eat\r
- Eat when hard (soft ones often mean theyve fermented)\r
- Calories are 60 per 100g\r
\r
\r
5.Sweet Sop (aka Sugar Apple or Custard Apple)\r
- Reptilian-like, dragon skin, with many knobs\r
- Eat when soft and able to tear open\r
- Inside has a delicious creamy, white flesh, which has a texture is like a key lime pie filling or a custard\r
- The taste is like its relatives (i would say a combination of a cherimoya and a soursop), but if you havent tried those I would say it is like a sweet sorbet from nature\r
- Calories are 94 per 100g\r
\r
\r
6. Peanut Butter Fruit\r
- Has a thin skin and should be eaten when quite soft, almost like you would a hychiya persimmon\r
- Inside the texture is a little pasty.a little gooey. It is like a mix between a ripe persimmon and an egg fruit\r
- The taste is not overwhelming, but it is nutty, and enjoyable\r
- There are 1-2 seeds inside which are quite large relative to the size of the fruit.\r
\r
* If you are interested in transitioning to a plant-based or fruit-based diet I have recipe books available at \r
