What is a "loquat"?
Loquat is a small, sweet fruit with a tangy flavor and a delicate texture. It is native to China and belongs to the Rosaceae family. The fruit is round or oval in shape, with yellow to orange skin and juicy flesh. The taste is often described as a combination of peach, citrus, and mild mango. It is commonly enjoyed fresh, either eaten out of hand or added to fruit salads. Additionally, loquats can be used in jams, jellies, pies, and even infused in beverages. With its pleasant taste and vibrant color, the loquat is a delightful addition to any fruit lover's repertoire.
