Hidden Delights

erwinkennythomas on Jun 24, 2011

This piece tells of the usages and hidden delights of three tropical fruits.

There are not fruits grown in America

Nor, other temperate regions of the world

Like apples, pears, grapes

Strawberries, blueberries, or blackberries

These are three distinct tropical fruits

Mango, pawpaw, and tamarind

With hidden delights

A mango could be eaten when half ripened

Its skin could be green or yellow

Could be enjoyed when soft and juicy

Or, anyone could make mango chutney and a drink

That is unheard of by most Americans.

The pawpaw is a larger fruit

Also with a green or yellow exterior

Image via Wikipedia

Than the biggest mango

That may have a seed the size of a golf ball

When green it could be used

To make chutney

With peppers, onions, spices, and salt

When ripened the pawpaw makes for a delicious fruit

It has many small black seeds

The best of these fruits are sweet

The tamarind is long like beans in a pod

But much thicker with its brown skin

The fruit generally has a sweetish

And sourish taste

Having seeds that are brown

The tamarind is used for making jam

Marmalade or tamarind drink

That was an interesting share. I like mango, never tasted tamarind or pawpaw. Where do you get these tropical fruits. Not mango the other two. Thanks

Hi there!
