Starfruit (Carambola)

Starfruit, also known as carambola, is a tropical fruit with a distinctive star shape when sliced. Its smooth, waxy skin ranges from green to bright yellow, and its juicy flesh is both sweet and tangy, making it a refreshing treat.

Nutrition-  Starfruits are rich in vitamins A and C, making it an excellent antioxidant and immune booster.

Serving Suggestion- Starfruit is often enjoyed fresh in salads, smoothies, or as a garnish. Its unique flavor and vibrant appearance make it a favorite in both culinary and decorative uses.

Ripeness Guide- Starfruit is ripe when orange-ish yellow. It will be very sour when green, leave it in a plastic bag and tie it to ripen quicker. Trim edges of the fruit if it tastes bitter.
