Description:
Its fruit, the carambola, more popularly known as star fruit, but also coromandel gooseberry,
kamranga, or five finger, is a golden-yellow to green berry. When cut across it shows a 5-pointed
sometimes 6-pointed or 7-pointed star shape, hence the name, star fruit. Star fruits are crunchy,
and have a slightly tart, acidic, sweet taste, reminiscent of pineapples, apples, and sometimes kiwi fruit.
The fruits are a good source of vitamin C. Its seeds are small and brown. They consist of a tough outer skin
and a tangy white inside.
The star fruit originally came from Sri Lanka and the Moluccas. For the past several hundred years,
it has been cultivated in Malaysia. |
