Longan
Longan (Dimocarpus longan) is a tropical fruit native to Southeast Asia, closely related to lychee and rambutan. It is characterized by its small, round shape and a thin, brown shell that can be easily peeled away to reveal the translucent, jelly-like flesh inside. The fruit has a sweet, aromatic flavor that is often likened to a combination of lychee and grape, making it a delightful addition to tropical fruit platters and desserts.
Longan is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients. It is a good source of vitamin C, providing antioxidant benefits that help support the immune system. Additionally, it contains vitamins B1, B2, and minerals such as iron and potassium, contributing to overall health.
To enjoy longan, you can eat it fresh, add it to fruit salads, or incorporate it into beverages. It is also commonly used in Asian cuisine, particularly in desserts and soups.
