Yup, another puprle skin fruit for ya to know!!
Ok,here is the start of a new month for food bloopers.
The mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) is a fruit tree native to Malaysia with small, dark reddish brown to purple fruit with a smooth, thick rind, 5 or so seeds. The flavor is described variously as that of peach and pineapple, strawberry and grape, peach and apple, etc. The juicy flesh, divided into sections like an orange, almost melts in your mouth. It is usually found only in local markets because it must ripen on the tree, and they only keep a short time. Mangosteens are not related to the mango though.
