Pitahaya, pitaya, dragon fruit. The fruit weighs a gram, some specimens reach a kilogram. The pulp is eaten raw, has a sweetish taste and is low in calories. Reviews that pitaya is tasteless are extremely rare, although the taste may seem bland. It is recommended to eat pitaya slightly chilled; It is not recommended to combine pitaya with dishes with a strong taste. In addition, pitaya can be made into juice or wine, or used to add flavor to other drinks. The flowers are edible and can also be brewed into tea. To prepare pitaya for consumption, the fruit is usually cut vertically into two halves. After this, you can either cut these halves into slices (similar to how you cut a melon), or scoop out the pulp with a spoon. Although pitaya seeds are rich in valuable lipids, they are generally indigestible unless chewed. The peel is inedible and may contain pesticides.


Mangosteen, mangosteen, mangosteen, mangosteen, garcinia, mangkut, white slices of pulp are hidden under the burgundy-purple crust. The taste of the fruit is creamy-sweet and somewhat tart. Mangosteen is rich in vitamins B and C, phosphorus and calcium. It is a very effective antioxidant. Mangosteen is also known as "king fruit". Legend has it that Queen Victoria promised a knighthood to anyone who brought her fresh mangosteen fruit. But alas, no one managed to do this. At that time, the journey from Asia to the British Isles took several weeks. no one was ever able to deliver the mangosteen to the queen safe and sound. But it was precisely thanks to this difficult task of the Queen that mangosteen was awarded the honorable right to be called the queen of fruits!


Durian. You should absolutely not eat while intoxicated. A specific fruit, primarily due to its pungent, unpleasant odor. Few people eat it. It tastes like it can't be eaten, although the Japanese love it. Durian contains a large amount of vitamins and microelements, is an aphrodisiac, but is contraindicated for hypertensive patients, as it increases blood pressure.


Durian, often called the king of Thai fruits, weighs from 2 to 10 kilograms, and the durian skin is studded with thorns of a menacing appearance and size. In Thailand and many Asian countries, durian is considered a delicious and even captivating fruit. It is well known that durians growing in Thailand are the most delicious in the world, so this is one of the most expensive but popular fruits in the markets. In addition to the fact that durian is a very valuable fruit, it has a specific taste; An Englishman who visited Siam in the 19th century describes his impressions of the taste of durian as follows: “it is akin to eating herring with blue cheese over an open sewer manhole.” More flattering reviews claim that durian tastes like a mixture of garlic, cheese and onion. Thais claim that durian is actually sweet in taste and is similar to a sweet cream made from eggs and milk. According to the famous naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace, trying durian is a radically new experience, and a trip to the East is worth it. The more you eat durian, the less you want to be distracted by anything else."


Rambutan is a tropical fruit tree of the Sapindaceae family, native to Southeast Asia, cultivated in many countries in this region. The name of the plant comes from the Indonesian rambut, which means “hair”, due to the appearance of the fruit. Rambutan fruit is eaten both whole and canned, and is also a common ingredient in tropical fruit salads with the addition of skate or liqueur. Lychee or longan can be used as a substitute for rambutan.


Rambutan is a very popular fruit in eastern countries, it is also large quantities exported to countries that do not have the opportunity to grow this strange fruit. The fruits have a short shelf life after they are picked. The maximum shelf life in the refrigerator is 7 days. When eating rambutan, remove the skin from it with a sharp knife, for which a shallow circular cut is made in the middle of the fruit. One part of the peel is removed, leaving the other instead of a “decorative holder” of the fruit pulp (for example, when laid out on a dish to make semi-peeled fruits easier to take), which is also removed before eating the pulp. Rambutan is eaten carefully so as not to spoil the taste of the pulp with the taste of an accidentally bitten off kernel (bone). You can also cut the skin of the fruit lengthwise into petal-shaped sectors if a dish with fruits is served to guests who do not have the skills to cut rambutan.


Jackfruit or Indian breadfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) is a plant of the mulberry family, close relative breadfruit. Jackfruit evergreen tree, reaching a height of 20 m. The leaves are dark green, leathery, oval, up to 22 cm long; the foliage is dense. The tree is monoecious. Male and female flowers are inconspicuous, collected in unisexual inflorescences. Male flowers are on thin branches, often among the foliage. Female flowers larger, on thick, strong pedicels that grow directly on the trunk (caulifloria), at the base of the lower branches or from the ground at the foot of the tree. The fact is that, unlike the breadfruit tree with its massive branches, the branches of the jackfruit are quite thin and brittle, and the fruits are formed where the trunk is strong enough. Flowers are pollinated by wind and insects. In cultivation, jackfruit is often hand-pollinated. The fruits ripen in 38 months.


Therefore (and because of the cheapness) jackfruit in India is called "bread for the poor." The seeds are also nutritious and contain 38% carbohydrates, 6.6% protein and 0.4% fat; they are most commonly roasted and eaten like chestnuts. Jackfruit wood is not damaged by termites and fungi and is used for buildings and furniture making, musical instruments. Jackfruit is widely used in local cooking, both ripe and unripe. Unripe fruits are used as vegetables, they are boiled, fried and stewed. Ripe fruits are eaten in fresh They make salads and desserts. Jackfruit is highly nutritious and contains about 40% more carbohydrates (starch) than bread.


Jackfruit fruits (fruits) are the largest edible fruits growing on trees: 2090 cm long and up to 20 cm in diameter, they weigh up to 34 kg. Their thick skin is covered with numerous cone-shaped protrusions. Young fruits are green, when ripe they become green-yellow or brown-yellow and when tapped they make a hollow sound (unripe fruits are hollow). Inside, each fruit is divided into large lobes that contain sweet yellow pulp consisting of juicy slippery fibers. Each lobe contains an oblong light brown seed 24 cm long; in one fruit there can be up to 500 seeds. The peel and seeds of the ripe fruit emit a strong unpleasant odor, reminiscent of rotten onions, while the pulp has a pleasant smell, similar to banana and pineapple. All parts of the plant, including the peel, contain sticky latex, so it is recommended to cut the fruit with sunflower oil on your hands or wearing rubber gloves. Overripe fruit turns brown and spoils quickly, but can be stored in the refrigerator for 12 months.


Lychee (Lychee, Litchi, Leechee, Lichee, Lichi) is a tropical fruit, one of the most popular fruits in Southeast Asia. The only member of the genus Litchi in the family Sapindaceae. It has been valued in China (where it comes from) for about 2000 years. The fruit is 3-4 cm long and 3 cm in diameter, similar to strawberries with a hard skin. Hidden inside is pearly white pulp, similar to grapes, and an inedible, slightly poisonous seed. The taste is sweet, with slight sourness and the aroma of rose petals. Close relatives of lychee - rambutan and longan - are found on sale (although less frequently). It has been valued in China (where it comes from) for about 2000 years. The fruit is 3-4 cm long and 3 cm in diameter, similar to strawberries with a hard skin. Hidden inside is pearly white pulp, similar to grapes, and an inedible, slightly poisonous seed.


There is a Cantonese saying: “one lychee = three burning torches.” This alludes to the fruit's highly arousing Yang qualities. Eating too much lychee can lead to dry lips, nosebleeds in some people, and can also cause acne and mouth sores. A relative of the lychee, longan, has the opposite healing properties.


Salak “Snake fruit” tree-like fruit plant Palm family. Diameter 3-4 cm, weight g. Fruit oval shape(the ends are elongated) the size of a kiwi with a scaly brown skin that is easily removed. The beige flesh consists of one or more segments. The seed inside the fruit is inedible. The pleasant refreshing taste of the fruit is reminiscent of pineapple and banana with a slight nutty flavor. The unripe fruit, due to its high tannin content, makes the mouth stick. Distributed mainly in Southeast Asia. Season: in Thailand and Malaysia June-August, in Indonesia - all year round. Popular in Indonesia and Malaysia, the fruit is rarely found in other countries. It is believed that the most delicious fruits grow in Bali and near Yogyakarta in Java.


However, many Europeans are put off by the fruit's snake-skin-like appearance. Some hobbyists manage to grow herring at home from a seed. The plant begins to bear fruit after four years, and the fruits ripen within six months. The fruits of Salak are eaten. Consumption: fresh fruit, compote, salad. To peel the fruit, carefully cut or tear the scaly skin at the edge and remove it, as you would remove the shell from an egg. Also cultivated together with the lard plant is another fruit that is very similar to lard. Although many believe that this is just the Thai name for this fruit, and not another fruit. His name is "rakam". These two fruits are very similar and many consider them to be the same, but raki is red in color, unlike brown herring, and its taste is more concentrated.


Passion fruit or edible passionflower, or edible passionflower, or purple granadilla (lat. Passiflora edulis, port. Maracujá) is a species of plants from the genus Passionflower (Passiflora). The fruits of this plant have the same name (they are also called passion fruits and passion fruits, from the English passion fruit). The sweet and sour juice of passion fruit has high tonic properties (usually mixed with orange juice, added to yoghurts, etc.), and is also used in pharmaceuticals and cosmetology. In total, there are over 400 species of passion flowers, many of which are grown for decorative purposes.


The established stress in Russian on the penultimate syllable “passion fruit” is essentially incorrect, since the word comes from the Tupi-Guarani Indian languages, in which the stress falls on the last syllable. A more accurate name would be “passion fruit”. The name, which has taken root in the Russian language, probably came, like the product itself, through Poland.
