This Week’s Bag Featuring Starfruit – Week of November 30th

November 30, 2020 by Anna

Star_fruit

The fruit has distinctive ridges running down its sides (usually five but can sometimes vary); in cross-section, it resembles a star, hence its name. The entire fruit is edible and is usually eaten out of hand. They may also be used in cooking and can be made into relishes, preserves, and juice drinks.

Preparation

Simply wash the fruit, cut crosswise to get the star shape, and eat.  Starfruit can be eaten out-of-hand because the fruit is entirely edible. The fruit is also commonly used in salads, cakes, jams, jellies, cocktails or to garnish food dishes.  Starfruit is ripe when they are firm and have a yellow skin.
