White Jambu
Syzygium samarangense
White Jambu, botanically classified as Syzygium samarangense, are airy, crisp fruits that grow on prolific evergreen trees reaching twelve meters in height and belong to the Myrtaceae family.
Underneath the skin, the
white flesh is dense just below the surface, and as the flesh gets
closer to the center of the fruit, it develops a spongy, light, and
cotton-candy-like consistency surrounding the 1-2 black-brown seeds.
White Jambu fruits are crisp with a watery, mild consistency and have a
light, sweet flavor reminiscent of pears, cinnamon, and rosewater.
White Jambu fruits are known by many names such as
the Wax Jambu, Wax Apple, and Java Apple, and the fruit is a popular
variety native to tropical Asia.
