Canistel

Description

Yellow sapote / canistel with sweet moist pumpkin or sweet-potato-like flavour. Additional notes from duplicate entry: Canistel is a cultivar entry for Pouteria campechiana. The Yellow Sapote, also known as Canistel or 'egg fruit' due to its round to oval shape and yellow-orange color when ripe, boasts a sweet earthy flavor and a more moist texture compared with Lucuma. Enjoyed fresh with a hint of salt and lemon juice, it can also be incorporated into sweet custards or whipped into creamy milkshakes akin to eggnog by blending with milk.
