Star Fruit crush
Wednesday, June 06, 2012
These arrived with mom, from Kerala, I'm sure we get them here(in
Bombay), but you know how it is in Indian families, whatever which ever
faction of the family discovers 1st, it is quickly dispatched across the
rest of the family, parcelled with love and firmness :) so mangoes, a
certain type of lime to be pickled and rice come from Kerala and Pav
(yes, of the vada pav & pav bhaji fame), fabric of all sorts &
even school uniforms (!) are bought from here & sent to my cousins.
This might stump my generation but is perfectly logical to the previous
one. But that's not the point, the point is I'm smitten by the latest
arrival. Star Fruit!! I had never seen it up close, leave alone sampled
it. Everything from the way it looks whole, to the way it looks sliced
to the way it tastes has me fascinated. I'm sure a whole load of you
have grown up with it, and have long outgrown it. But this is new to me.
Kindly indulge my childish wonder.
I promise my next post will be sane & adult :)
