Jabuticaba is a cultural staple in Brazil, it's in music, literature and is an integral part of generations of brazilians, my parents and their parents all had some measure of eating it when they were kids.

@NikhillRao27 3 месяца назад

I want to try it so much, it's not found in the US at all. might need to check out a Brazilian market.

@phranerphamily Год назад

This Portugal series including Miguel have been so informative and fun. Thank you both.

@WeirdExplorer Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it

@gbertonzzin Год назад

Weird that Miguel suggests that you peel the skin off, here in Brazil we usually don't do that. Some people dislike the skin so they don't chew it or just spit it off, as it is kind of resiny and astringent and full of tannins, but peeling it on the hand is new to me haha. Always thought the *POP* the jaboticaba makes when you throw it in your mouth and bite it was the most fun part of the sensory experience. Nothing against peeling it this way, I'm not criticizing or anything, just got a bit surprised :) I like the skin, by the way, chew it up and swallow it for sure, full of complex flavors, got my mouth watering just to think of it! Hugs from Brazil, come visit us!

@WeirdExplorer Год назад

Brazil is on my must visit list ;)

@jairotipple7731 Год назад

I don't like the skin very much, so I just squeeze it and bite a little off the skin and the whole inside pops into your mouth.

@rarefruit2320 Год назад

The skin is actually good on some of them such as the one called honey syrup (my current avatar)

As an American considering moving to Portugal to have a rare fruit/garden.....I have found your Portugal series really really great....love all your videos, but this series is wonderful. I hope you go back in June/July in 2023.

@valterzc8187 Год назад

Definitely one of my favorite fruits. One of the best things about this fruit is that you can have fruits twice a year, or even all year long depending on the species you grow

@ericgouw Год назад

I tryed once to make a jaboticaba wine but I don't know what I did wrong, it didn't work, it was terrible 😅 but we do jams, juices, liquors and many other stuff with this fruit. Fun fact: the colour of these will be purple since it takes the pigments from the skin.

@melhawk6284 Год назад

Not enough sugar, maybe? Or an off temperature at some point can create off flavors with wines. Never played with jabuticaba wine, but raspberry and blackberries were often in the brewpot!

@louispaxeco6931 5 месяцев назад

In Espirito Santo State in Brazil, in rural areas they produce jabuticaba wine. To produce jam, its necessary to add pectin, normally from orange skin, since jabuticabas are devoid of it.

@robclark3095 Год назад

A friend of mine said when he was a kid living in Sacramento, CA, they had this tree that he said "had grapes growing all over it." At first I thought he was talking about a tree that had grape vines growing on it. Years later I found out about the jaboticaba and showed he and his father a picture of it. They pretty much said, that's exactly what they had growing in their yard. Sacramento is in climate zone 9b, so there is a possibility it could grow there.

@JJBoudreau Год назад

I grow this in Dublin Ca. It grows great all over the Bay Area. I would be curious how old the tree is in Sacramento

@John-qn6ex Год назад

I finally did it Jared! I found one that is not on your list! I also managed to find your list! Ready? Dracaena Reflexa. The fruit of the common houseplant with the nickname "Song of India", or less commonly, "Song of Jamaica". Apparently it is a very important part of the diet of a type of Lemur on one or more islands in the Indian Ocean. I assume this means that Homo Sapiens can eat it as safely. Perhaps not. But, hey... That part is where you come in. Right?

@coolhandluke1503 4 месяца назад

As someone who has eaten these all my life, I've never seen anyone peel one, I just put the fruit up to my top teeth and as you puncture the leathery skin you squeeze with you fingers, squeezing all the contents into your mouth and spit out the seeds

@stephenwithaph1566 Месяц назад

Ya i get them in new york city's chinese markets and thats exactly what I do! I eat the seeds too so less to clean up, even if they're a little bitter

@Ruirspirul Год назад

fun fact: wine grapes are some of the most tasteless eating grapes out there, since it has to have absolutely insane amounts of sugar and relatively high acidity. so by wine grape you probably mean aromatic grapes like Muscat or some other non vitis vinifera grapes (Muscat is still vitis vinifera)

@beatnik6806 Год назад

I don't know the difference, because in Finnish every grape is called "viinirypäle" meaning "wine cluster" 😂 only the colours differiante them like "green viinirypäle"

Yes! I’m growing this myself along with the Red jabo variety. If you’re not in zone 9 or 10 they’ll grow reallyyyy slow. Makes for a great bonsai-like tree. I’ve had mine for 3 years and it’ll be another 5-10 years atleast before I get my first fruit.

I recently started growing some Jaboticaba in southern california- and while its holding up well through the winter just fine- I discovered it'll be about 8~10 years before It gets to its fruiting age, so thats a bit of a damper, oh well- hopefully were all still around in a decade!

@coolhandluke1503 4 месяца назад

These make excelent wine, jam/jelly, and a high in anti oxident refreshing drink, but the trick when making things like preseves is to consider how much of the skin you want pummeled for it's zest. The fruit is very sweet with no sour, the skins are the opposite and produce the rich magenta colour. The best flavour fruit wine and jam, I've ever personally tasted

@stephenwithaph1566 Месяц назад

Sabara is my favorite Jaboticaba. The trees thrive in my area of Florida and produce a large amount of fruits, a few times a year. I’ve always thought they have the flavor of a nice grape with hints of cherimoya.

@aspen9102 Год назад

@@WeirdExplorer haha, kids usually put the ball in and pop it lightly with the teeth(just enough to make a small gash) before taking it out and squeezing with the fingers normally so it doesnt have the chance to pop it in the wrong place making the pulp miss its target and making a mess

@aotearoassecretgarden7700 Год назад

We do the same here in New Zealand ☺️ . I think the pop with teeth and squeezing into mouth comes naturally. Also I noticed this was how Miguel ate his on the video he didn't peel.

@WeirdExplorer Год назад

Depends what you're interested in. The more I travel the more I realize that every country is worth visiting. For fruit though a good start would be to head to the Amazon rainforest or jungle in Borneo. For travel in general, maybe it's nostalgia, but one of my favorite trips was Laos. Specifically getting off the beaten path though, luang prabang and Vientiane were fine, but finding my way into less visited towns was an incredible journey.

Is the tree already big enough to bear fruit? If yes you can force it to fruit by cutting a ring around one of its branches as if you were going to do air layering, and keep it from recovering until you see flowers in that branche, then you let it recover and slowly the whole tree starts producing fruits.
