Casimiroa edulis, known as White
Sapote, is a tropical fruit native to Mexico and Central America. The trees can
grow up to 10 meters in height and produce fruit typically in the spring and
summer months. They prefer tropical and subtropical climates with warm
temperatures and well-drained soil. They can tolerate some degree of drought
but prefer regular watering.
White sapote fruit are typically green when unripe and turn yellowish-green or pale yellow when ripe. The fruit is usually round or oval-shaped and ranges in size from that of a small apple to a large avocado. White sapotes have a sweet and creamy flavour with hints of peach, pear, and vanilla. The texture is often compared to that of a ripe pear or peach.
White sapotes can be eaten fresh,
either by cutting them in half and scooping out the flesh with a spoon or by
peeling and slicing them. They can also be used in various culinary
applications, such as smoothies, desserts, jams, and sauces.
White sapote fruit is rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, and calcium. Like many fruits, black sapote is low in calories and contains beneficial nutrients. They are particularly high in vitamin C, which is essential for immune function and collagen production. Additionally, its fibre content can aid in digestion and promote feelings of fullness.
