This fruit is also known by the name of tree tomato (because of its resemblance). Its main component is water. Its content of vitamins A and C, and soluble fibre stands out, which combines high antioxidant power and improved intestinal transit.
Tamarillo has a juicy pulp with a flavor described as a mix of sweet, tangy, tart, and slightly bitter, often compared to a cross between a tomato, passion fruit, guava, or even kiwi. Red varieties are more tart, while yellow and orange types are sweeter. The skin is edible but bitter, so the pulp is typically scooped out for consumption. Tamarillos can be eaten fresh, sprinkled with sugar, added to fruit salads, made into chutneys, sauces, jams, mousses, or used as a dessert topping.
