Starfruit

A new first for this week: Starfruit!

A co-worker brought in a sack of these beauties from her tree. I have never tried this type of fruit before; it was delicious--kind of like a plum/grape.

In case you were wondering how to eat a starfruit, I'll provide some directions:

Take the fruit and with a knife, cut off the ends; make a shallow cut down each spine to shave off each hard edge. Then make slices along the fruit to create the star-like shapes this fruit is named for (they are so cute!). You might have to pull out a few small seeds, similar to what you would find in a grapefruit or an orange. Then eat and enjoy! Mmm! So good.
