May 16 - Black Sapote Tips:

Also called chocolate pudding persimmon, black sapote is used in dips or slice and freeze for a healthy chocolate-like dessert.

Good-quality black sapote will have soft and slightly wrinkled skin. The skin will turn from bright-green to olive as it ripens. Avoid product that is so soft the skin has split or has black scars or bruises.

Available from Florida December to January.

OASIS has much more information on specialty fruit.
