1001 foods: rambutan

Posted by on June 9, 2009 at 7:31 pm.

I like going to ZZ’s Produce even though it is far out of the way.

Last time I went, it was crowded. I didn’t feel like sticking around until I saw them.

Rambutan.

So I bought a few of them and took them home.

They reminded me of peeled grapes in texture and tasted mildly melon-like. They also tasted a bit like a lychee candy I used to buy. Overall,  I am glad that I procured and sampled this fruit, but will not go out of my way to track them down in the future.

    You should try them fresh in their native land. Malaysia/Indonesia or Thailand.
    it is much-much bertter looking, and tastes fresher..
    It’s seasonal, and July would be the best time to come down and try loads of them!.
    In Malaysia, it is sold at RM 4 (roughhly US $1) per kilogram.
