About Tamarillo

The Tamarillo belongs to the solanaceas family. This fruit is oval shaped, it is 7-9cm long and 100 to 150gr in weight. The crust is smooth, thin and red. The exterior part of the pulp is firm and fleshy. In the centre, the fruit has a soft and jelly - like texture with small edible seeds. The crust is a little bitter but the pulp has a pleasant bitter-sweet flavour.

 

These tart, flavorful "tree-tomatoes" (as they are sometimes called) can be eaten fresh or cooked, once the smooth yet bitter skin has been removed. They are best when combined with sugar to reduce their natural tartness. Their meaty flesh provides a quick, low-calorie snack (approximately 19 calories each) and is an excellent source of Vitamin C.
