It's very easy to recognize, it's about two to five inches in length. With a pleasantly citric taste, this attractive fruit has been described as a combination of plum, pineapple, apple, lemon and grape.
When ripened to yellow, it's crisp texture offers a sweet-tart juice. The narrow ribbed fruits generally have a more tart flavor; thick fleshy ribs are usually sweet.
Add to fruit and vegetable salads. Blend with avocado, kiwis, mangoes and bananas. Puree with other fruits for refreshing ices, mousses and sherbets.
