I’m not entirely sure why I didn’t write this post back in June when I actually had monstera fruit, but oh well. This is an amazing fruit. Positively delicious, and the best single fruit that I’ve ever had, but unfortunately it can have some variance, and if it’s not ripe, it has this strange acidity that’s quite uncomfortable, and if it’s really unripe, and you force through the burning on the lips, you can supposedly loose your voice. Russo’s helpfully wraps them in plastic wrap, and I think that helps a lot, but basically you wait until as many of the green things are loose and move around on the surface (which you can feel through the plastic wrap). Then unwrap the plastic wrap and they all fall off. Eat the white stuff like corn on the cob. It is absolutely delicious.
