Bin Gregory’s post on the various fruits found in Sarawak. There are more out there for sure but he does provide an interesting writeup.
Buah Terap : Similar to Nangka (Jackfruit) and Cempedak. Stinks like anything. But only the outer layer smells.
Mata Kuching : Everyone’s favourite. Note that it needs to be soak in water for a few minutes because a lot of pesticides are usually sprayed onto the fruit and the outer layer is very thin. Taste great after being chilled in the fridge.
Buah Salak : I’ve never tasted it before. Then again, there are a lot of jungle produce found in the local wet market. Looks interesting.
Dragonfruit : Very filling fruit. Looks peculiar but it’s actually quite tasty.
Enjoy the read and drool over the pictures!
