  • In this episode of In the Kitchen with Matt, I will show you how to eat a Cherimoya fruit. What does a cherimoya fruit taste like? I will do a taste test as well. It also has a secondary name called the custard apple, because of the creamy white texture of the flesh. Although it isn't a true Custard Apple, that is another fruit belonging to the same family.
    Mark Twain wrote this about the Cherimoya, "The Cherimoya is deliciousness itself" and "Cherimoya, the most delicious fruit known to men."
    Where do they come from? They were believed to be native to places like Columbia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Chile. They are cultivated and grown in tropical regions around the world and also in Spain.

    If you wait until the outside is softer and shows a combination of green and brown, the inside will be softer and more like a custard with a consistency resembling a ripe pear but much sweeter with sections like a pineapple. In its peak of ripeness it literally drips sweet liquid. It is definitely the best fruit I have EVER eaten. I was a fruitarian for several years and could not get enough of this fruit.

      I've also had one. I bought it from my local store, 3 days later i ate it and i gotta say the flavour of the fruit really is amazing. The only negative is that apperently the skin of the fruit is not edible (even though it's really easy to chew, i did try to eat like 2 bites of it but yeah apperently it contains a few toxic compounds). Though i can say just 1 day later it was already prettty soft so yeah i probably could've eaten it earlier, though i wish it had more pulp in it.

    "The pineapple, the mangosteen, and the cherimoya", wrote the botanist Berthold Carl Seemann, "are considered the finest fruits in the world, and I have tasted them in those localities where they are supposed to attain their highest perfection - the pineapple in Guayaquil, the mangosteen in the Indian Archipelago, and the cherimoya on the slopes of the Andes, and if I were asked which would be the best fruit, I would choose without hesitation, cherimoya. Its taste, indeed, surpasses that of every other fruit, and Haenke was quite right when he called it the masterpiece of Nature."

    I love exotic fruits and cherimoya is great. Another lesser known fruit that's absolutely delicious are loquats. Loquats are probably my favorite fruit. I looooove them. They are native to Southern China but are grown worldwide in mild climates. Almost impossible to find them in stores so you pretty much just have to find a tree and pick them. They ripen in the Spring time. They can be eaten fresh or used any way you would use apples or peaches. Pies, cobbler, jams, etc.

    • @inthekitchenwithmatt
      @inthekitchenwithmatt  Před 3 lety

      YES! I love loquats too! Growing up we had a big loquat tree in our backyard in California. So yummy! They do grow here in AZ but a bit harder to take care of while young, because of the intense heat we get here. We have a couple specialty exotic/tropical fruit nurseries that sell a few varieties of loquat trees here. Every once in awhile you can find them at the nurseries in Lowe's or Home Depot.

    The chirimoya is a beautiful and absolutely delicious fruit. From the sound of it when you bit into it, it seems like yours was a tad under ripe, it should not give a crunch sound when its bit into it when its properly ripe it soft and just sweet enough, also typically eaten with a spoon. My favorite fruit ever!!

    It was not ripe enough. It should be eaten like a custard. I agree that it is one of the most delicious fruits in my list. It is not as expensive when purchased in areas with warm climates where it grows like Portugal, Madeira Island and it shoul thrive very well in the Mediterranean climate.

    In India we get Custard Apple and it should be blackish around the ridges. This looks unripe, you should be able to break open with your hands. If you are using a knife, then it is most likely unripe. The consistency/softness inside a custard apple feels like the inside of a pecan-pie with the seeds.
