Rambutan- my latest fruit


The rambutan is a relatively common fruit the same way an apple is common to us. The word "rambut" in the fruit name 'rambutan' is Malay for 'hairy,' and this refers to the spiky rind. Besides being hairy it was covered with ants, so by the time I cut open and put in the frig, I was ready for a Granny Smith.
