Hello.
I am going to introduce some unusual fruits.
A coconut. It is well peeled.
Such a well peeled coconut cannot be found in shops.
It is quite special. Then, there are Macadamia nuts.
They are hard to find in that form.
Then, there is bee-bread.
This is a beehive product.
This one is also quite rare.
I also have a mango here.
Everyone knows that.
This is a persimmon.
Maybe a little less famous.
These are pistachio nuts, in-shell.
Those pistachio nuts are not salted, they are raw.
This fruit is a durian.
I think this one is not known at all.
It is prickly and it has a strong smell.
It is really tasty.
There is another one here.
When it is open like this,
It is ready-to-eat.
It is a Coco Pagode Light from Thailand.
In order to taste the delicious coconut water,
There is here a third eye.
Is it a bit soft when you push it strongly.
On this spot, you can insert a knife,
or you can use a straw
made of steel. This one is made of titanium.
Insert it in the coconut.
I can do it now.
That's it. Fantastic.
Now you just need to...
After you sipped the water inside,
remove the straw, of course.
Then you can eat the flesh inside.
Now turn the coconut upside down.
Here, as you can see, there is a bulge.
Use need to use a knife,
and tap all around the nut, this way.
You can also use a Thai machete, but not everyone has that.
Today, I show how to do it with a knife, not with a machete.
Tap, twice here, all around.
After some time...
The crack initiates.
Alright, now it is almost...
You need to be very careful when you're doing this.
That's it.
Use a spoon.
Scape the inside.
I use a spoon-fork.
Here you go. You can savor the coconut flesh.
Not bad.
The Macadamia nuts here come from Australia.
As they are raw, the shell is very hard.
You need to break it
with a hammer or a machine like this,
so you can crack the nut.
Place the nut here.
Actuate the lever. There you go.
You can eat the inside of the nut.
It is very tasty.
Now, we move to the honey.
It comes from Bretagne.
It is bee-bread.
In the bee-bread, there are wax cells,
where bees store their honey.
Larvae can also be found inside. That's the brood.
You can also find pollen in it.
In bee-bread, it is fantastic to have pollen.
This is really good.
It is simple to eat. Use your fingers and bite it.
Very good.
Let's move to the mango.
This mango looks quite great.
It's better to pick the soft ones.
The hard ones are not good at all.
Preferentially the ones shipped out by plane.
The reason is that they are gathered when ripe on the tree.
This way, it is far tastier, more scented,
It has nothing to do with hard mangoes.
I am going to show how to cut it.
You need to use a knife.
Let's start here.
Cut all around it,
around its circumference, and then open it.
It's a bit hard...
Divide it into squares.
Once the mango is divided, it is usually presented this way.
Apparently, it is a bit knocked,
that's why its color doesn't look attractive.
But it doesn't remove anything, you can still eat the fruit.
Now, I introduce the persimmon fruit.
It comes from the persimmon tree.
This fruit...
becomes mature when it is overripe.
It must be slightly soft.
It can also be completely soft sometimes.
It's very tasty.
You can eat this fruit as it is.
Just bite it.
It has a high content of C vitamin and it is really healthy.
This grows in France, even in Strasbourg.
I think it withstands at least -15°C.
This tree can grow in France.
There are different species.
About five years ago, this fruit was not much famous.
It is ripe in November and December.
Let's move to pistachio nuts.
These come from Indonesia.
They are raw, hence not cooked, not salted and not grilled.
How can you open them? Before, I used to open them like this.
One pistachio nut is OK.
But with 50 nuts, no way.
I found a trick. I use a knife, this way.
I insert it under the shell. And that's it!
Delicious.
You can see a kind of small spot here, that starts to germinate.
The color is really flamboyant,
while its texture and taste have nothing to do with the cooked ones.
Let's move to our beloved durian.
This fruit comes from Thailand.
Its weight can reach 6 to 8 kilograms. (13 to 17 lb)
It grows on the trunk of the tree.
It is too heavy to grow on a branch.
It is special because it is very prickly.
Usually people do not hold it like that, you need gloves.
This one is very small.
The uniqueness of this fruit is its very strong scent.
Sometimes it can smell very good, and sometimes not good at all.
In Thailand, this fruit is forbidden
in public transports, airports and hotels,
because of its very strong scent,
it can be very unpleasant, it can smell like gas
or very unpleasant things.
But for people who like this, it can smell pork butchery, onion tart.
That's quite extraordinary.
I could also say that...
it can smell like very strong cheeses like the Munster cheese.
The Munster cheese smells very strong,
but its taste is very tasty.
If you want to eat this fruit, this one is in an advanced state,
It is already cracked.
In Thailand, when they pick a fruit, you use to *** it.
When its sounds like it is hollow,
it means that the inside is detached, like here, and it is ripe.
As this fruit is already a bit open, just open it fully, this way.
You can also use a knife.
As a rule, cut it like this.
Some people open it this way, and eat the inside with a tea spoon.
Now let's open it frankly.
You can see there are cells.
Inside the cells, there is a sumptuous cream,
There is a stone inside, and you can eat all the cream around it.
There are about six to seven cells.
Once the fruit is detached, you can eat it.
Here you can see the stone.
Some people eat it, I don't.
I don't like it.
