Jak se jí a připravuje

For ripe fruit, cut open and eat/use the white pulp while avoiding the seeds. Thai TISTR also documents young fruit cooked in southern gaeng som; young fruit is therefore treated as a cooked vegetable state, not raw ripe-fruit use.

Použití v kuchyni

• ripe fresh pulp
• juice/smoothie and processed fruit products
• young fruit cooked in southern gaeng som (documented variant)
