It’s a WATER APPLE
Locally known in Timor/Indonesia as Jambu.
What does it look like?
It looks really pretty, like this:
Water apples can be either bright pink or lime green. They are about 3-4 cm in diameter.
How does it taste?
It’s freaking delicious and very refreshing.
Personally, I think it tastes like a nashi pear with a twist of lime. The edible skin on the outside is quite waxy, but very thin and the flesh is really crisp and juicy and slightly spongy at the core.
How do you cook it?
You don’t. You can pick it and eat it straight off the tree, which is one of its best qualities, but it also goes well in both fruit and vegetable salads. Because it’s so pretty, it adds to the visual effect of anything you put it with.
