Here are 5 Best Tasting Exotic Fruits you have likely never heard of, and if you have, you probably haven’t tried them. Are you curious to know what the names of these exotic fruits are?
Most of these fruits are native to southeast Asia, while others are available at your local exotic fruit shop (and your garden) but often get completely overlooked. Some of these strange fruits taste amazing, while others are… well, they are an acquired taste.
1. Durian
Durian, aka the smelliest fruit in the world, is an acquired taste… for garbage juice. No, really, this spiky fruit actually smells like rotten eggs, sweaty socks, wet garbage and underlying notes of sweetness.
This southeast Asian fruit has a pong strong enough to stink out a whole apartment building. However (and this is a reluctant ‘however’), apparently ripe durian tastes good. Once you get past the putrid smell, the creamy flesh on the pods inside its thorny shell taste sweet. We’re game if you are.
2. Banana passion fruit
While passion fruit are popular in Australia during the warmer months, banana passion fruits are much less known. Native to the Andes of South America, these yellow, elongated passion fruits contain an orange, sweet pulp and are lovely in juices.
3. Rambutan
These little sea urchin looking things are an exotic fruit of southeast Asia. The word ‘rambut’ translates to ‘hairy’ in Malay and you can see why. However, once you peel the soft rind it looks exactly like a lychee, which is because they are in the same botanical family.
The small, plump fruit has a sweet, creamy flavour with a hint of floral. The point being, don’t judge a fruit by its cover because it probably tastes delicious inside — except, perhaps, for this next fruit.
4. Snake fruit
Snake fruit (Salak) is a species of palm tree native to Java and Sumatra in Indonesia. Its scaly appearance reminds us of snake skin or even a dragon egg, but beneath its surface is flesh which is delicious combo of sweet, sour and juicy. It’s like a dragon fruit tingle.
5. Jackfruit
They might look somewhat similar to durian but are 1000 times less stinky. As the largest tree borne fruit in the world, a jack fruit can weigh as much as 35 kilograms.
Once ripe, a jackfruit smells like a mixture of pineapple and banana and, after wrestling to open it, is full of fleshy pods or “lobes”. A jackfruit has a mango, pear, peach and pineapple flavour. Sounds like heaven.
