How to eat Cherimoya | What does Cherimoya Fruit taste like?

- Опубліковано 21 вер 2024
- In this episode of In the Kitchen with Matt, I will show you how to eat a Cherimoya fruit. What does a cherimoya fruit taste like? I will do a taste test as well. It also has a secondary name called the custard apple, because of the creamy white texture of the flesh. Although it isn't a true Custard Apple, that is another fruit belonging to the same family.
Mark Twain wrote this about the Cherimoya, "The Cherimoya is deliciousness itself" and "Cherimoya, the most delicious fruit known to men."
Where do they come from? They were believed to be native to places like Columbia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Chile. They are cultivated and grown in tropical regions around the world and also in Spain.

If you wait until the outside is softer and shows a combination of green and brown, the inside will be softer and more like a custard with a consistency resembling a ripe pear but much sweeter with sections like a pineapple. In its peak of ripeness it literally drips sweet liquid. It is definitely the best fruit I have EVER eaten. I was a fruitarian for several years and could not get enough of this fruit.
Yep it was definitely more ripe the next day. Yummy!
I hope to visit Madeira in 2021 and this is one of the first items I will seek out.
I've also had one. I bought it from my local store, 3 days later i ate it and i gotta say the flavour of the fruit really is amazing. The only negative is that apperently the skin of the fruit is not edible (even though it's really easy to chew, i did try to eat like 2 bites of it but yeah apperently it contains a few toxic compounds). Though i can say just 1 day later it was already prettty soft so yeah i probably could've eaten it earlier, though i wish it had more pulp in it.
@@Lat41 have you visited Madeira yet?
@@AzureKite191 yes. But only for a week.
"The pineapple, the mangosteen, and the cherimoya", wrote the botanist Berthold Carl Seemann, "are considered the finest fruits in the world, and I have tasted them in those localities where they are supposed to attain their highest perfection - the pineapple in Guayaquil, the mangosteen in the Indian Archipelago, and the cherimoya on the slopes of the Andes, and if I were asked which would be the best fruit, I would choose without hesitation, cherimoya. Its taste, indeed, surpasses that of every other fruit, and Haenke was quite right when he called it the masterpiece of Nature."
They are pretty awesome. I LOVE pineapple especially when it is grilled. I still haven't tried mangosteen, can't wait to find one and try it.
Durian and mango have joined the fray
@@BehraamBaqai I tried 'white sapote' and found it similar to but better than the cherimoya.
Bought one from Wegman's yesterday at 7.99/lb. My fruit was completely ripened and a little less than a pound. Enjoying eating it right now. The most wonderful fruit in the world.
Awesome, Henry! I am glad you were able to get one and taste it.
Ha! Just got one from wegmans today at 8 dollars a pound. Haven’t tried it yet though. Where’s your wegmans?
@@matthewglaser676 Harrison, NY
I live in San Diego County CA. I have 2 Cherimoya trees. They are interesting in taste. They should be eaten with a spoon. I describe the taste as super sweet with hints of pineapple, coconut, and mango. Very tropical.
Nice! That is awesome you have two trees. I have seen them eaten many ways, a spoon being one of them. I grew up in CA, San Jose area. But my dad grew up in San Diego, I spent lots of time in San Diego. Great place.
In Cuba it has the same name. but we will never eat it that green. we always wait for it to ripe very well. It is very good in smoothies and juices
Nice!
I just bought my first one and it is gorgeous. I got creamy, custardy flavour, and soft pulp. Was not fully ripe, but the centre was so nice.
It also also related to soursop, which is a fruit i would love to try.
Glad you got to try it and liked it!!
That looks so similar to sugar Apple. The inside as well. Sugar apple is a fruit I grew up with in the Caribbean.
Awesome!! That is so cool you grew up in the Caribbean! :)
In The Kitchen With Matt it was lovely 😊
@@danielletracyann I bet! :)
This is the sugar apple but grown in different place
@Tropical Bay Area correct
My son and I tried it. It tastes how a pine tree smells. It's a sort of combo of pineapple and pear.
Glad you tried it
I found a local vender at my farmer's market who sells them for $4 a pound and they are so good!
Awesome!!
Are you in Tampa?
One of my favorite fruits, you described it just how I would! Dragon egg heart shaped fruit! It definetely needs to be a brown green to get the full effect to reach the custard apple level.
Awesome!! Yes as mentioned at the very end this one wasn't as ripe as it could have been. :) I wish they were cheaper here in the States.
The chirimoya is a beautiful and absolutely delicious fruit. From the sound of it when you bit into it, it seems like yours was a tad under ripe, it should not give a crunch sound when its bit into it when its properly ripe it soft and just sweet enough, also typically eaten with a spoon. My favorite fruit ever!!
Yep such a great fruit and yes it was a bit underripe. I mentioned that at the very end of the video. :)
I just ate my first one. It's super delicious.
Awesome!!
I love exotic fruits and cherimoya is great. Another lesser known fruit that's absolutely delicious are loquats. Loquats are probably my favorite fruit. I looooove them. They are native to Southern China but are grown worldwide in mild climates. Almost impossible to find them in stores so you pretty much just have to find a tree and pick them. They ripen in the Spring time. They can be eaten fresh or used any way you would use apples or peaches. Pies, cobbler, jams, etc.
YES! I love loquats too! Growing up we had a big loquat tree in our backyard in California. So yummy! They do grow here in AZ but a bit harder to take care of while young, because of the intense heat we get here. We have a couple specialty exotic/tropical fruit nurseries that sell a few varieties of loquat trees here. Every once in awhile you can find them at the nurseries in Lowe's or Home Depot.
I bought one for 3 dollars at my local Asian market. Imo it has more of a texture like a ripe banana or custard, and it tasted a little tarty, but sweet with a sort of cherry and passion fruit taste.
Glad you tried it! Yes when very ripe it will taste kind of like custard as far as the texture goes.
An $11.50 heart shaped pinecone dragon egg...sounds delicious...and totally worth $11.50. What other fruit gets such a cool description!?
hahaha I know right?? haha
true
I have to chip in. Dragon Egg is definitely the way marketing should go.
I ate it before is a little bit expensive but it tastes really good next time try it like a drink just peeled it and remove the seeds ,blend it ,add water ,sugar and ice .In Mexico it’s guanavana🤙🏻
Yeah it is expensive here as well. I will definitely try it as a smoothie next time! :)
they call it guanavana? that is very similar to another name we have for soursop( a relative of cherimoya) whih is guanabana.
Soursop is exactly what I thought it was, too.
A friend I met on holiday to Portugal, she picked me out 2 and I’m here to learn how to eat 😆
Awesome!
I just bought two of them in Spain for €1,57 and they where ripe, soft and sweet so I could eat it with a spoon. 👍
That is a really good price! So yummy! yes waiting until they are full ripe and soft enough to eat with a spoon is the way to go.
In Chile you can have a 'chirimoya alegre' which is cherimoya with orange juice, or if you feel adventurous try a cherimoya 'ponche' with white wine and sugar. And as you mention is better more ripe.
I think they have Cherimoya ice cream there as well?? So many tasty uses for this fruit.
I just bought one at a market in Peru . Cost 1.50 usd
Awesome! So cheap there!
Yes, next time wait for it to get really ripe and soft with sort of off white flesh and prepare to be wowed or your taste buds rather. It's very delicious and richly juicy, it's my all time favorite comfort fruit.
Hi Nancy did you watch til the very end of the video? I said it wasn't ripe. :) Yes it is much better when ripe.
Thanks for this. Just got some from sprouts. I used to make these at a juice bar I worked and ooomg they were my fav smoothies. Had them daily cant wait to try my own.
Awesome!! Just wait until it is ripe. :) Should be lightly brown in a few places and have give to it when you press it, not firm. And if you happen to cut it open and it isn't fully ripe, like I did in the video, just wrap it and let it ripen a few more days in the fridge. :) :)
I remember being a cashier and one time a customer came with this. I was like, wtf is this🤣🤣looked like a rocky avocado. I asked everyone else and no one knew what it was and no one could find where it came from. Not even the customer. The customer gave up and so did I🤣🤣🤣
LOL that is hilarious. That happened to me once with a different fruit and the cashier didn't know what it was so she gave it to me for free haha.
Man I wish i could get one of these to try!!
I hope you do get to try them someday, they are awesome! Just make sure they are ripe when you eat them, this one in the video was still not quite ripe enough.
if you leave it wrapped in a bag for a couple of days out of the cold it will ripen better. you know it's ready when it's soft to the touch
Thanks! Yeah I should have let it go a few more days. It was still really good.
When I have the chance I will try it less ripe. Thanks for your videos
@@ismaramackenzie6188 You are welcome! How much do they cost where you live?
@@inthekitchenwithmatt it is very likely that you have a neighbor, family or friend who has a tree in their house and you get it for free
If you buy it less than a dollar
Thanx voor de explanation. We get this fruit. And Thanx to this video we known what this is. Thank you!
You are very welcome! :)
This fruit has to be eaten really RIPE. These are reeal big. In my Island we eat these once a day, its so delicious and creamy when soft and RIPE. Enjoy.
Yes I know, did you watch the video until the very end? haha I mention that.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt
You are really handsome, your voice is soothing and when you smile, the world smiles with you. Yes i did I watch up to the end. Who can NOT WATCH with a voice like yours. I am 70 years old so nothing will happen to you 👵😍 My French hubby never liked this drink, go damn!!! Apart from his beer nothing else tastes good 😁🥴🙄 We have this as a drink for breakfast, its pulpy. Thanks for sharing caring and making me smile again. I am addicted to your videos. Never too old to learn.
@@Knittyneeds Well thank you so much! haha :) Next time I buy it, when it isn't so expensive, I will have to add it to a smoothie. mmm
@@inthekitchenwithmatt
You are the coolest Gentleman with a "smoothie" heart. Hugs from France 😁👍👍👍💐💐💐🥰
This fruit helps to prevent growth of cancer cells.
Yes!! :)
Would it then be in the category of the soursup fruit?
@@davidbabafemiaka2249 I think so but it's less sour, more sweet, looks similar but heart shaped.
Starts from 3:37
No, it starts at 0:01. haha :)
Sprouts has them at my location in Los Angeles for 8.99$ a pound. I will have to try one sometime this summer. I never have ate one myself.
Awesome! Yeah I have seen them at my Sprouts as well on occasion.
I ate this fruit in Yucatán Peninsula, it was really ripe. The taste was like straight sugar and when you chew close to the skin is little bitter. Next time let it ripe give it at least one week before eating it.
Yes it wasn't fully ripe, I talk about that at the end.
Is it better to eat it at room temperature or cold? Thank you
Either is fine, the main thing is to make sure it is ripe. It wasn't ripe enough in this video.
In India, it is known as Seethapazham.
Cool!
Thank you for your reply
@@shijixavier9945 You are welcome!
This is so wholesome
Thanks!
If you have an Hmart near you they may stock these on occasion (got mine there in Houston along with a soursop)
Yup I do! It is right across the street from the place I got this one I go there often as well. Sprouts also carries them on occasion.
The sound at 4:45 wins
hahaha
I like to tear it to chunks and pure orange juice on it, my fother and my brother prefer to tear it to chunks and eat it with some whipped cream
Yummy!!
Just found this channel and I really like it
Thank you, Arthur! :)
Bought 1 for $8. So happy it’s an affordable food! 😂
I called out the name custard apple with my wife but got it confused with an Australian fruit that almost looked like it had chocolate flesh.
Also for $8 I’ll be eating the skin and trying to grow the seeds!! 😂
LOL yeah extremely affordable haha. Yep the Cherimoya is mistakingly known as the custard apple, in fact that is a common name for them, however there is an actual different fruit called the custard apple which is different than the Cherimoya.
It is more delicious if you put it in a blender with ice mix with milk. Yummy👍
Nice!
From Philippines too!
Yep! They grow them there as well!
That's guyabano in the Phils-:)
Cherimoya and Guyabano are related but not the same. Like them both!
And peru too ✅. Love chirimoyas
Awesome!!
Hello, I hope you're well. I wo like to find out, can you replant the seeds and eat the skin?
In India we get Custard Apple and it should be blackish around the ridges. This looks unripe, you should be able to break open with your hands. If you are using a knife, then it is most likely unripe. The consistency/softness inside a custard apple feels like the inside of a pecan-pie with the seeds.
Did you watch the whole video? I said it wasn't ripe. :)
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Ah sorry no I didn't. I just saw this fruit at the grocery yesterday and it felt hard. Was curious and stumbled on your video :)
@@topcat5992 No worries! :) :) Yeah, they pick them unripe when they sell them, unfortunately, nothing like freshly picked ripe already fruit haha. But these ripen fine after picking them.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Usually an unripe fruit you could wrap it in newspaper or put it in raw Rice and in few days it will ripen. This is common practice for mangoes as well but it shouldn't be too green either. Problem is I don't think the unripened-frozen ones in the stores will ever ripen.
@@topcat5992 Indeed!
It was not ripe enough. It should be eaten like a custard. I agree that it is one of the most delicious fruits in my list. It is not as expensive when purchased in areas with warm climates where it grows like Portugal, Madeira Island and it shoul thrive very well in the Mediterranean climate.
Hi Maria, I know it wasn't ripe enough, did you watch the full video? :) I said it wasn't ripe enough in it. And yes, it is probably better when eaten fresh in one of the countries where it grows, instead of imported and cheaper haha. They are expensive here where I live.
Do they have cherimoyas in Madeira?
@@AzureKite191 Yes, you'll find lots of cherymoyas in Madeira's markets where fruit is sold. Many locals have cherrymoia trees in their yards.
@@mariacandido771 Are you from Madeira?
They literally taste like Froot Loops. I had one yesterday. Super good
Awesome! Glad you like it!
The riped one tastes like honey trust me it's definitely one of the sweetest
Yes as I mentioned in the video at the end, this one wasn't ripe.
Sounds wonderful! Don't know if I can find it here in NW GA or not. But I think I'll look for it! Thanks Matt. Great video, as usual! God Bless!💜
You are welcome, Donna!! If you have an Asian market you may be able to find one. That is where I found mine.
I found some in a Harris teeter in the low country of South Carolina, so I wouldn’t be surprised if you found one there
@@xanderdaniels8284 Thank you so much Xander!! I will certainly be looking!
I luv honest people
:) :) :)
Taste so good like a soursop! Great in oatmeal! It needs to be more ripe.
Yes, it is really good when ripe. I said in the video at the end it wasn't ripe.
Yes I saw that, after I made the comment. I commented before that part. 😮
They are way better when you have them in Peru. Super tasty!!!
I bet! Fresh is always best, much better than imported while unripe and having to wait for it to be ripe. Much better when picked ripe right off the tree!
Yes in Spain also :) Have eaten lot of them.
Awesome! :)
How much do they cost where you live?
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Hmm about 4€/Kilo :) Depends where you buy them but it's about 3,50€/4€/Kg
@@inthekitchenwithmatt I came across this video because right now I live in. Spain and I wanted to know if to buy them. I saw them on sale for €0.90 for 1 but it's not as big as yours
@@tishataray Nice! That is a good price. The price definitely varies depending on the size of them. I found some cheaper ones at a local specialty market but they were smaller as well, but about half the price.
Next time wait to the fruit to get very soft then you will experience a whole new taste sweeter softer juicier
Yes Barbara, did you watch the whole video? :) I mentioned that in the video.
Never heard of it. Interesting!
I know right? totally interesting fruit.
Try it for the first time, but didn't realized it needs to ripen. Lol it was hard and didn't like. Now, is in the fridge to be ripen.
Yeah it definitely tastes much better when ripe. :)
We call Custard Apple as Shijian, Cherimoya as Pineapple Shijian in Taiwan. Love both of them. It costs $2~3/pound.
Awesome! :) That is a good price too!
Great video!
Thank you! :)
Reminded me of some sort of ice cream
Yes!!
This is not a custard apple. It’s the same family but different.
Correct! BUT it is still commonly referred to as a custard apple. Even though it is NOT a true custard apple. I should have made that distinction in the video. I do make the disctinction on my written version: www.inthekitchenwithmatt.com/cherimoya
$2.93 per kilo here in Ecuador.
Good price!!
Were you get this fruit from
I got it from my local International/Asian supermarket. But I have seen it at other specialty markets, like Sprouts. Depending on the the country where you live, you may or may not be able to find them.
Here in Denmark, EU, you get 5 pcs for about 3.5 US$ in total 😉🙂
Wow super cheap compared to here!
Where do you find all these unique fruits?
I am lucky enough to have two International/Asian supermarkets within 25 minutes of where I live. I usually drive over there once every two months or so to see what is in season and if there is anything new I haven't tried before. Which reminds me, I need to drive over there again! haha
I hope you didn’t throw the seeds away but grew them because they’re very easy to grow, and then you can have as many as you want for nothing
I did throw them away. Cherimoya doesn't grow here where I live. :)
Omg it’s called sour sop in Jamaica 🇯🇲 t’s very sweet & juicy
Hi there! Actually sour sop is different. There are two fruits sour sop and cherimoya :) But both super tasty.
If you eat Indian custard apple when proper ripe you'll throw this away and it also costs like half a dozen in less than a dollar.
They don't sell the Indian Custard apple here, at least I haven't seen them. If they did, it would be just as expensive. Cherimoya and Custard apple are in the same family of fruits. The Cherimoya is sometimes referred to as a Custard apple, but it really isn't because they are two different fruits.
look like the fruit is semi ripe...a couple day on the counter
Hi John, yes, did you watch the whole video? I talk about that at the end. :)
That Chirimoya Is not ready to eat. It must be a little soft and outside with a darkgreen color. Then it is swett and juicy and with a delicate texture and flavour Try it with orange juice, it Is yummy !!! I live in Chile and chirimoyas are very expensive too, about U$6, considering we have Chirimoya trees
Hi Maria, yes, I know, did you watch the whole video until the very end? I said it wasn't ripe at the end. :) But yeah wow that is still expensive, especially since you don't have to import them from a different country.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt sorry Matt ! Thanks for your videos. Blessings for you !
👏👏👏☀️🌼🎁
@@mariadelaluzbittencourt481 No worries and you are so very welcome! Blessings to you as well. :)
thanks matt!!
You are very welcome!
$1 in Ecuador. Let it get softer!
That is a great price!
Here it costs 5 $
@@arenglish8906 $5 is the cheapest I have found them, but they were really small.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt I see
Ya it's kinda small but not tiny
Hhhh
@@arenglish8906 No the one in the video is a big one, but it cost twice as much haha, the $5 dollar ones I saw a few weeks ago, were about half the size as the one in the video. :)
2:10 That looks nothing like last 3 dragon eggs I’ve seen. At least the triceratops and t-Rex eggs….not sure about a brontosaurus though.
LOL
인스타그램에서 보고 궁금했는데 감사합니당~
You are very welcome!
Thought the outside was supposed to be more brown to be ripe
Yes, as mentioned at the very end of the video, this wasn't as ripe as it could have been.
My hyvee had them and I was curious
The cashier couldn't find it in the system so I got mine for free didn't realize they cost that much lol it was so good tho mine was much softer I think
Awesome!! That happened to me one time with a different kind of fruit.
Want to try one.
You should! :)
Interesting 👍👏
Thanks!
As someone who lives where they're grown I never liked them, even the most perfectly ripe ones my parents sang praises to but I dislike other acid fruits.
Yeah we all have our different tastes. I can see how some people may not like these, it does have an interesting texture, and taste.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt We do, I just thought if it has those prices far away it's good to give some warning to people that might not have the taste for them.
@@0Clewi0 Indeed, especially if it is an expensive fruit where they live. But if you watch the whole video, I say at the end that I don't know if it is worth that much, at least what I spent. So I did give a warning to people, haha.
Nice never seen this fruit
Thank you! :)
That chirimoya is nat ready to eat!! I can tell buy watching..it should be very soft and juicy
It sounds like you didn't watch the full video. I said at the end it wasn't ripe.
I think it tastes like bubblegum, am I right
Taste is subjective, if it tastes like bubble gum to you, then awesome!
@@inthekitchenwithmatt when I eat that fruit it does taste like bubblegum
you've just eaten the 1 fruit/veggie with the highest protein content. nothing tops it.
It is a pretty awesome fruit, indeed!
dayum 11.50 dollars? i just bought it and it cost me like 1.50 euro (1.80 dollars)
I live in Italy so prices may change but damn
Awesome! They grow a lot of them in Spain. I was at a local market the other day and found some for $5.99. It was probably off season when I bought the one in the video. $5.99 is the cheapest I have seen them here where live though.
He is eating an unriped fruit, as noted by someone the fruit needs to be soft to the touch and a little brown. When properly ripped it will be sweet and you may even have chucks of sugar.
When I go to Colombia I hunt down this fruit all the time...
You didn't watch the whole video did you? I said it wasn't ripe at the end!
Can i use this video in a fact video i am making, please? 😇
No sorry, I don't allow my videos to be used.
No Problem @@inthekitchenwithmatt
I don't think u let it ripe enough. Looks similar to a sugar apple here in the Caribbean.
Yes, I talked about that at the end of the video. Yep it is very close to the Sugar Apple/Sweetsop. :)
Well, I bought One for €0,70. Didn’t know what to expect. But judging from your fruit, mine is not ripe by a long shot. Bummer. Didn’t taste of anything unfortunately. Better luck next time.
That is a great price though! Yeah you need to let it ripen longer, there should be some brown spots on it, and it should slightly give to the touch like a ripe avocado does. :) It will ripen on the counter, or if you cut into it and it isn't ripe, wrap it in plastic wrap and let it ripe in the fridge for a few days.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt I was wondering wether I still had a chance to riping it. Awesome. Yes, it is really cheap!
@@jcgirl3 Yes you are lucky! It is so expensive here, haha.
As soon as you bit into that, I thought it didn't seem like a ripe one.
Yeah, definitely not ripe!
Kya ye custard apple hai
Custard apple yum!
Indeed! :)
that's not a custard apple(Annona reticulata). that is a cherimoya(Annona cherimola) dont get pawpaw, custard apple, cherimoya, atemoya, sugar apple, soursop, and kepel apple mixed. they are all related but are different.
When rip, it's like custard...not crunchy.
Yes I know. You didn't watch the whole video. :)
I want to try mamey sapote but they’re not sold here so I have to buy it online :)
I hear those are pretty good. Haven't found them here either. Even at the Asian market where I get lots of tropical fruits.
Have you seen soursop?
@@jamestropicals8262 Yup! Indeed I have.
Awsome! Definitely do video on Soursop if there in season
Have you ever herd of this fruit called rollinia?
The seed and peeling is known to be poison. Yours needed to be a lil more ripe. We have a huge tree in our backyard in California.
Hi Rose, yes, I mentioned at the end of the video it wasn't ripe. :)
Tastes like Juicy Fruit
Indeed!
If you need a knife to eat the custard apple, it wasn't ripe enough. It will taste a lot better if you would eat it days after instead.
did you watch the whole video? I said it wasn't ripe at the end.
Dang I just bought one for $3.99
That's a good price for this fruit.
my guy i think that one wasn't ripe enough when you cut it you should be able to cut by applying no force also the fruit should be so sweet that it should taste like candy. also why would you pick out the seeds if you were just going to cut off a chunk of it and spit the seeds out as you eat.
You didn't watch the full video did you? I literally said in the video it wasn't ripe at the end. And what are you talking about??? I didn't spit out the seeds. I dug every seed out first with the knife. Nowhere in the video do I say to eat it with the seeds and spit the seeds out.
Paid half a dollar for one in Bolivia
Yes very cheap down there! I wish they were that cheap here in the States!
Cherimoya ≠ custard apple
They are different
The one you are holding is Cherimoya
Cherimoya is from the Latin America, while custard apple is from Asia.
Hey there! I know this is a Cherimoya, I was the one that bought it :). Custard apple is just another common name for them although yes you are right, they are not true custard apples, but part of the custard apple family. These articles must have it wrong then. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Custard_apple and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherimoya The creamy texture is literally what gives the Cherimoya its secondary name which is Custard Apple. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherimoya and www.healthline.com/nutrition/cherimoya and the farmer's almanac www.farmersalmanac.com/what-the-heck-is-cherimoya-15580 "Because one popular way of eating them is to chill them and eat them with a spoon, cherimoyas are popularly known as “ice cream fruit” or “custard apples.” But don’t confuse them with “sugar apples” - Annona squamosa - they’re very similar, but different fruits." Custard Apple is the family, which includes soursop, and pawpaw. This article has it more correct foodprint.org/real-food/cherimoya-atemoya/ the true distinction is in their scientific names Custard Apple (annona reticulata) and Cherimoya (Annona cherimola).
It must taste good. Because you took 3 bites & almost ate that whole piece to describe it. 😂
It does taste good! It tastes even better when fully ripe.
I got one at heb for $5
Not a bad price!
In Portugal the name is “anonas” 😃😃
Nice! Although I think Anonas is the higher classification/genus, with Cherimoya, Soursop, and Sugar apple in that family. But I could be wrong, haha. :)
@@inthekitchenwithmatt And I think in Brasil they also call it Fruta do Conde 😁😁
