PASSION FRUIT
It is said that the Passion Fruit was named by the 16th century Spanish
Catholic Missionaries in the Amazon region of Brazil. They called it "flor
passionis" (passion flower) or "flor de las cinco llagas" (flower of the
five wounds) after its purple flower which they believed resembled the five
wounds of Christ.
An egg-shaped tropical fruit that is also called a purple granadilla, the
passion fruit has a brittle, wrinkled purple-brown rind enclosing
flesh-covered seeds, something like a pomegranate (granadilla means "little
pomegranate" in Spanish). The seeds are edible so you can eat the orange
pulp straight from the shell. Passion fruit is more commonly sieved and its
highly aromatic pulp and juice are used as a flavoring for beverages and
sauces.
Native to Brazil, passion fruits are grown in Hawaii, Florida, and
California. These crops, along with imports from New Zealand, keep passion
fruit on the market all year. Choose large, heavy fruits.
If the skin is not deeply wrinkled, keep the fruit at room temperature until
it is; the leathery rind, however, will not soften much. Ripe passion fruit
can be refrigerated for a few days.
Nutritional Information
Passion fruit is a good source of vitamins A and C, as well as potassium and
iron. One passion fruit has only 16 calories. When eaten with the seeds, a
serving is an excellent source of fiber.
