Description

You're reading an Auto-translation.

NOTE: After harvesting, passion fruit shrinks. However, this is not a sign of spoilage, but a sign of post-ripening. The fruit becomes fuller and sweeter in taste. Passion fruits can usually be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks after purchase.

There are 400 species of the genus Passiflora, some of which produce enchantingly beautiful flowers. The fruits of the different species vary in size, are round, oval, and range in color from yellowish, wine-red, purple-violet to dark brown. The wrinkled-skinned fruit has a large core, which contains a white to yellowish, jelly-like mass alongside countless blackish seeds. Passion fruit tastes refreshingly sweet-sour and has a distinctly exotic aroma.

Origin

The home of the various species of passion fruit (including granadilla and maracuja) are the countries of Central and South America. Besides there, cultivation primarily takes place in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Kenya, California, and Hawaii. Passion fruits are mainly offered in this country in early summer and summer. For the rest of the year, fruits come to us from Kenya and South America.

Preparation

For raw consumption, the fruits are halved and the pulp is spooned out. The seeds are eaten along with it. Passion fruits are also used in fruit salads, with ice cream, quark dishes, pudding, and other desserts. 

For a refreshing juice, the pulp of 3 passion fruits is placed in a blender with 300ml of water. Briefly blended, the pulp separates from the seeds. The juice is then sieved to finally separate the seeds from the aromatic yellow juice. Return the juice to the blender and sweeten with one tablespoon of sugar.
