The unique fruit of the Mekong Delta region in Vietnam has a distinctive appearance with its rough, white-grayish rind that resembles mold. However, beyond this unassuming exterior lies a treasure of a fruit. As it ripens, the flesh transforms into a deep brown, almost black, color, with a thick, luscious texture. Its scent is equally intriguing, eliciting a range of reactions—some find it overpowering and off-putting, while others are captivated by its distinctive, alluring aroma.
