Dragon Fruit

The Dragon fruit can weigh from 150 to 600 grams. To prepare a pitaya for consumption, the fruit is cut open to expose the flesh. The Dragon Fruit texture is sometimes likened to that of the kiwifruit due to the presence of black crunchy seeds. It can eaten raw, is mildly sweet and low in calories, fruit should not be used to accompany strong-tasting food, except to 'Clean the palate'between dishes. These seeds can be eaten with the flesh, however they are hard to digest unless chewed. We can convert the fruit into juice or wine, or used to flavour the beverages.
