FRUITY FRIDAY : PISANG KEPOK KUNING AND ALPUKAT

Last week my husband went home with a bountiful homegrown fruits from his parent garden.

A very long stalk of banana or we call it as 'pisang'.
This variety was Kepok Kuning.
There are eleven bunches of banana on this long stalk, very very heavy.
So, my husband cut it to make it easier to be carried.
We use to harvest banana when the fruits have ripen but the skin still green.
We only need three until seven days to get them full ripening and have the best taste.
Harvesting banana on the full ripen stage have too much risks, cause so many nocturnals really love this fruit.

Another fruit was alpukat or avocado.
These avocado were smaller than usual, I think it caused by long dry season last year.
The fruits have ripen, but the flesh is still somewhat hard.
We also need about a week to get the flesh tender and has a great taste.

Thanks GOD for the blessing!
