Gifts

Last Saturday night, hubby went to meet up with few friends. He came home with gifts from his friends.

One friend gave us this fruit. They called it crystal fruit. I was not so sure what was it but it tasted sweet. First time tasted it. 


It tasted something in between longan and rambutan.  Bigger fruit with big black seed inside like longan but firmer texture like rambutan.  Pretty heaty as I needed to drink lot of fluid after tasted one. I am prone to sore throat so I am pretty sensitive when it comes to heaty food and fruits. 

Skin was hard, so one need to press hard to squeeze the fruit out. 

Another friend gave us his aunt's freshly made changs. One was Nyonya chang which was sweet and fragrant. Natural colouring from butterfly peas. I prefer this chang more than her Hakka chang. 


The Hakka chang was saltier and bigger. I think we have overdose of changs this year. Some we bought and some were gifts. Felt blessed to receive the homemade dumplings from friends. 


Thank you both for the yummy gifts.

I think I saw that fruit at the shop this morning. Heaty? Thank goodness I did not buy. I just take a bit of heaty fruits and I would fall sick already.

Lucky you! So many changs. I still have a few of the nyonya ones my friend gave me. Keeping them in the freezer, will take out one to enjoy...space them out so they will last a long time.

You are indeed so blessed! The photos of your bakchang makes me want to buy some again to eat. I googled for more info on crystal fruit. Thanks for teaching us new things. Is it very very sweet until you need to drink water after eating only one? The sop in Kuching is so different from here. Sop here doesn't allow people from different households to meet up unless for essential matters.

I love nonya chang! That crystal fruit is interesting. I have never seen it before. If it is heaty, then can't take too much. I always thought that all fruits are cooling..

The crystal fruits look like the matoa fruits in my post. I think they could be the same fruit because some have green skin and some have red purplish skin. Coincidently, I too had chang made with butterfly pea colouring.
