I've been on the hunt for a variety of exotic fruits. About a year back, I thought I could only find such at idle eastern asian, or international mercados. A few were so good, they didn't make this post. Lol. Like the cassava. There was even one that I'm still not sure the name of. Pictured first below. I mentioned recently that sometimes whole foods selection can be limited. However, I was reminded by my mother, and a few Asians. That my local market carried what I was searching for. I found some rambutams, dragon fruit, green figs, and mangosteens. I cleaned them with about 1/2 a teaspoon of Meyers dish soap, a 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar. Then I ran them under some luke warm water. Allowed them to soak for five minutes then rinsed them. The rambutam is delicious. A juicy grape with an almond for a seed. The green figs were soft on the outside, with juicy tangy seeds on the inside. The dragon fruit tastes similar to kiwi. The mangosteen is sweet and sour. I'm surprised, I wasn't looking for this one. Yet, I probably enjoyed it the most. Nature is beautiful and delicious.
