How to eat a dragon fruit...

This is a dragon fruit!



It's a popular fruit in Vietnam that grows in desert-like areas.  It's fairly cheap here, but expensive back in Canada.  The fruit is soft, and the taste is similar to a mild kiwi.  The seeds are edible.  Here's how you can eat one, in 6 easy steps.

Step 1:

Cut the dragon fruit lengthwise.



Step 2:

Separate the 2 halves of the fruit.



Step 3:

Run a spoon around the inside of the fruit to separate it from the peel.



Step 4:

Spoon the fruit out.  You can save the peels to present the fruit in later.



Step 5: 

Slice the fruit into small parts.



Step 6:

Put the fruit back in the peel to serve, and eat!

 Enjoy!!!

  3. I've never tried an actual dragonfruit before, just the juice of it blended in with some other flavours. It looks tasty! Do the seeds have a lot of texture or do they just kind of fade away into the flesh of the fruit?
