Rollinia

ROLLINIA

Description: Large yellow fruit with a bumpy surface and soft spines. Tastes delicious, and is described as a creamy lemon sherbet or a lemon meringue pie. Comes from the Amazon and is a member of the Custard Apple family.

Preparing/serving: Fruit appear to be only eaten fresh, or scooped out and blended with ice cream. Attempts at drying the flesh resulted in an extremely bitter flavour dominating.
