Mangosteen
Fruit◎ Good year-round
Exotic fruit with a thick purple rind that gives way to juicy, snow-white flesh; its taste is a delightful balance of sweet and tart, reminiscent of a blend between peach and pineapple. Often hailed as the 'queen of fruits', mangosteen is rich in antioxidants that enhance its appeal.
Where it comes from
Hailing from Southeast Asia, mangosteen has been revered in Thai culture for centuries, often used in traditional medicine for its health benefits.
In the kitchen
Primarily enjoyed fresh, mangosteen is also a luxurious addition to desserts and beverages, providing a refreshing burst of flavor that elevates both sweet and savory dishes.
