🦆 🦆 🦆 thank you so much for the lovely duck 🦆 football footage, it was adorable 💕 😊 Also thank you for your kindness in sharing your fruit adventures with us, the viewers, here on RU-vid.😅 Sending greetings to Vostok 🐈😸🐈
I love those fruits, I've been eating them since my childhood. I've also seen jaboticaba wine and steak sauce made from them. They are amazing and only come once a year, ripening quickly on every branch in a beautiful way. Here's a little folklore for you: my parents taught me that if I'm eating a lot, I should swallow 2 or 3 rinds so I wouldn't get a stomach ache(I think it works but who knows lol).
There was a black jaboticaba in the greenhouse of UIUC where I went to school. Sometimes it would fruit and they would forbid us all from eating any; but we did anyway and it was very delicious.
Thanks for putting the scientific names for every fruit. It helps greatly in searching online & elsewhere. A very fruitful family the myrtaceae! I wonder if they have any common taste traits? I love eating Acca sellowiana and even Myrtus fruits are good edibles. Cloves, allspice, rose apple & eucalyptus are also in the same family.
@@WeirdExplorer firstly thanks for the reply, always nice to get a direct response, been a viewer since ep 80. I might have to see if there's a way to get jaboticaba's here in the UK to make it myself. Probably easier to get medhrono though!
The funny thing is, the fruits often do make their international debuts in frozen food sections abroad, such as the pulp & juice or even the whole fruits, also so with veggies & other edible plants. They're actually just as nute-dense as as their fresh counterparts & even dried ones, seriously look those up
Funnily enough Jaboticaba was one of the plants that first got me interested in plants (purely just by looking around online), I always wanted to try making a bonsai of one. Unfortunately Myrtaceae fruit seem to cause an allergic reaction for me (nothing dangerous but it really upsets my stomach to the point of vomiting) so I never ended up doing anything. They still look so tempting though... As an aside, Jaboticabas are one of those groups of plants that collectors will pay frankly absurd prices to get some particularly rare species/variety which is barely distinguishable from another more common one.
When I was a kid I used to l pick them off of the trees in my grandma's country house and eat them right away after giving them a wash. Nothing compares to this feeling. However, I've only had the purple variety, I can't find the other ones here in São Paulo, Brazil
I am thankful that at least this fruit can be found in markets in the midwest, though you usually have to go to the smaller Asian or Hispanic stores, which means that the price can be a bit high. It's a shame that it is not available on a regular basis, though. The Jaboticaba that I have tasted has reminded me of slightly less sweet concord grape juice. Very tasty.
espirito santo is the name of bazilian state from which the fruit came from sabará popular name is "olho de boi", meaning bull's eye because thei big size i have small hybrid tree much like the one on the video, the good part of this cultivar is that the tree poduces fruit all along the year as long as you give good fetilizer thanks for the nice video
The hybrid jabuticaba tastes a bit tart it they aren't 100% rippened, they need to be completely black with no green spots, else they will taste almost the same as a sabará. Also if they have really thin rinds, and at least at my home the bees destroy almost all of them, but no the sabará ones.
Não sabia que demorava tanto tempo. Devem ter algumas variedades que crescem mais rápido Elas não são difíceis de encontrar em São Paulo, mas dependendo da época o quilo custa um absurdo Comer elas direto do pé era minha coisa favorita kkkk
@@RM-yf2lujust saw that, the name actually It is from the indigenous Tupi language and can mean: - "the fat of the turtle" ((jaboti+caba)). - "the food of the turtle" (jaboti+guaba).
