But once I tried a Hawaiian star fruit right off the vine, I rediscovered it! The trick is to slice off the tips of each spine, which house the bitter fruit. The rest is a juicy explosion of yummy deliciousness that tastes like a combination of apples and grapes.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp2.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1ixQwoN84I\/AAAAAAAAAMU\/DKsGl2qY4Es\/s1600-h\/IMGP0982.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp2.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1ixQwoN84I\/AAAAAAAAAMU\/DKsGl2qY4Es\/s200\/IMGP0982.JPG\" alt=\"avocados in Hawaii\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Avocados<\/span><\/span><br \/>A favourite tree lurking in many a local backyard, it is a real treat to walk along in the forest and come upon a few avocados lying on the ground, waiting to be made into guacamole!<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iutgoN8zI\/AAAAAAAAALs\/YcKbFEPUo34\/s1600-h\/IMGP0984.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iutgoN8zI\/AAAAAAAAALs\/YcKbFEPUo34\/s200\/IMGP0984.JPG\" alt=\"Passionfruit (lilikoy) in Hawaii\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><strong>Passion Fruit<\/strong><br \/>Known as lilikoy, this stuff grows in abundance. There are a variety of colours and shapes available, and the taste is tart in nature. You scoop out the entire insides, and the large seeds add an interesting crunch. I quite like them, but it isn\u2019t one of Kelly\u2019s absolute favourites.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bananas<\/strong><br \/>There are a number of different varieties, but the most common around here are about half the size of the bananas we\u2019re used to in Canadian stores. I can\u2019t eat them myself (I have a mild allergic reaction to uncooked bananas), Kelly loves them to bits.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Papaya<\/span><br \/>These puppies grow everywhere, but unfortunately like bananas, I can\u2019t eat these either. The seeds in the middle are often dried and ground up to be used as a seasoning like pepper. The peach-coloured meat is plentiful and has a mild taste not dissimilar to cantaloupe.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Mangoes<\/span><br \/>They grow wild on just the other side of the road, and although they aren\u2019t currently fruiting, I would suspect they are juicy, bright, and delicious.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Wi<\/span><br \/>Pronounced <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">vee<\/span>, and often called wi apples, they are a relative of the mango. And consistent with their title, they taste &amp; have the consistency of a combination of mango and apple.<br \/><br \/><em>Note: Years later when I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/random-observations-about-grenada\/\">lived in Grenada<\/a>, I believe we called these &#8220;golden apples&#8221;. <\/em><br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp3.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1ivSAoN80I\/AAAAAAAAAL0\/Pi6G0cuWvO0\/s1600-h\/IMGP0986.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp3.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1ivSAoN80I\/AAAAAAAAAL0\/Pi6G0cuWvO0\/s200\/IMGP0986.JPG\" alt=\"Guavas, picked fresh in Hawaii\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Guava<\/span><br \/>Guavas are actually considered to be weeds by the locals, as they grow in abundance anywhere given a chance. You see lots of guava trees on the side of the road. The pink fruit inside (although you generally eat the skin too) has a sweet and sour taste, and the seeds are very hard and small. Most people don\u2019t bother spitting them out, but they can be a pain to chew through. Although I like guavas, they\u2019re not Kelly\u2019s favourite.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iv_QoN81I\/AAAAAAAAAL8\/hKGfftA0U1E\/s1600-h\/IMGP0993.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iv_QoN81I\/AAAAAAAAAL8\/hKGfftA0U1E\/s200\/IMGP0993.JPG\" alt=\"Strawberry Guava, one of my favourite natural foods from Hawaii\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Strawberry Guava<\/span><br \/>These little pearls of goodness, on the other hand, are hardly un-likeable. Also growing everywhere around here and considered to be weeds, they live up to their name in taste \u2013 they are wonderfully sweet like strawberries. They are about the size of a quarter in diameter, and although they too have hard seeds, they\u2019re not nearly as obnoxious.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Breadfruit<\/span><br \/>This cantaloupe-sized green fruit can be eaten a few ways: If you catch it before it falls from the tree the insides are hard and white and you can cut it up and cook it like potatoes. It tastes just like potatoes, except it\u2019s way better for you!<br \/>If you let breadfruit ripen, it softens (and sweetens) incredibly, and turns into this mushy paste that doesn\u2019t taste offensive at all, but the consistency isn\u2019t great. The locals here stew it into porridge, but we haven\u2019t gotten into it yet. We prefer them like potatoes!<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Rolinea<\/span><br \/>This was the first odd tropical fruit we experienced here in Hawaii, and my gosh \u2013 are they ever good! They are also the size of a cantaloupe, and when ripe are brown in colour with odd soft nubs all over it. They are pretty heavy (about 2lbs for a small one) and very delicate. Cut into it and you\u2019ll find a white pasty pulp with large brown seeds. Dig in with a spoon, and the yummy contents will taste kind of like pudding or cream pie (except with big black seeds, which you spit out)! The consistency for some may be hard to get past, but we managed, and now rolinea is a real treat for us.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Lychee<\/span><br \/>We haven\u2019t had (or even seen) any of these yet, but we know they\u2019re available, and even grown on the property. I guess they\u2019re just not in season right now.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iwVgoN82I\/AAAAAAAAAME\/BxmbMrLzwQw\/s1600-h\/IMGP1001.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iwVgoN82I\/AAAAAAAAAME\/BxmbMrLzwQw\/s200\/IMGP1001.JPG\" alt=\"rambutan in Hawaii\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Rambutan<\/span><br \/>I have seen these in stores at home, but never tried them. They are a relative of the lychee. Cut through the red spiny skin, and you\u2019ll find a fruit inside that bears resemblance (in colour, consistency, and even taste) to lychee fruits. The pit in the middle has a woody texture and is a pain to get the fruit off, but it\u2019s still worth it! They\u2019re a treat.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jackfruit<\/strong><br \/>We also haven\u2019t tried this yet as they\u2019re not in season, but apparently they taste just like Juicy Fruit gum!<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iwsQoN83I\/AAAAAAAAAMM\/Wy94PG9JN-A\/s1600-h\/IMGP1038.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iwsQoN83I\/AAAAAAAAAMM\/Wy94PG9JN-A\/s200\/IMGP1038.JPG\" alt=\"Soursop - a natural food in Hawaii - tastes like bubble gum!\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Soursop<\/span><br \/>With a flavour reminiscent of pink bubble gum, we have tried this one, and despite its appearance and name, it\u2019s pretty yummy! The consistency is a little odd, and the colour and seeds bear resemblance to rolinea.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1ixvQoN85I\/AAAAAAAAAMc\/rdT86efY1CI\/s1600-h\/IMGP1037.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1ixvQoN85I\/AAAAAAAAAMc\/rdT86efY1CI\/s200\/IMGP1037.JPG\" alt=\"mamey sapote; a tropical fruit in Hawaii\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Mamey Sapote<\/span><br \/>As part of an entire sapote family of fruits, the mamey is one of the most common and the only one we\u2019ve tried to date. We think the flavour is pretty similar to sweet potato casserole, although it was described to us as pumpkin pie. In any case it is certainly squash-like in consistency and taste, even though it is a fruit. Super yummy, but we felt the need to add something to it. We even tried heating it up (apparently not commonly done) and mashing it with some ginger to replicate sweet potato pie more closely. We came close!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><br \/>Pomelo<\/span><br \/>These are large grapefruit-like citrus fruits. They\u2019re prized in the Chinese culture, and you can find them in local grocery stores in Canada, usually around fall.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bp2.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iyKwoN86I\/AAAAAAAAAMk\/wSpDWf-G4d4\/s1600-h\/IMGP0981.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bp2.blogger.com\/_Goo1BmTC80U\/R1iyKwoN86I\/AAAAAAAAAMk\/wSpDWf-G4d4\/s200\/IMGP0981.JPG\" alt=\"citrus in Hawaii\" width=\"400\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Oranges, Tangerines, Grapefruit, and other citrus<\/span><br \/>The oranges we have cut into here put Florida Oranges to shame. They\u2019re so juicy, they literally melt in your mouth.<br \/>The Tahitian Limes are so sweet you could almost peel and eat them.<br \/>The lemons are so big and bright, I have more than once mistaken them for oranges!<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Coconuts<\/span><br \/>The green ones offer a yummy coconut-water, which is light and sweet in taste. There are some people around here who actually drink it solely in lieu of drinking water at all. Those people also have terribly bad teeth, and I imagine are on their way to becoming diabetics too! Nonetheless, it is considered to be nectar of the gods, and I know why.<br \/>The brown coconuts are great for their plentiful meat, which we have started to experiment with in our cooking. Stay tuned for another post in which we will explain our coconut sauces, drinks, and even macaroons!<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Ginger &amp; Turmeric<\/span><br \/>There are a number of strains of ginger and turmeric grown here, some which are only grown in Hawaii and are quite valuable. Although there isn\u2019t any on the property that we know of, just up the road is a farm where you can get it for a song. Cooking with fresh turmeric is a real treat, as is the spicy Thai Ginger that has a kick unlike any other ginger.<br \/><br \/><em>Note: It was in Hawaii that I learned about the health benefits of turmeric and incorporated it into my routine to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/staying-healthy-while-traveling-natural-preventions-and-cures\/\">stay healthy while traveling<\/a>. <\/em><br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is still a huge variety of untouched produce at our fingertips like brain fruit, egg fruit, taro, and others I cannot even begin to pronounce, let alone figure out how to eat.
