这是我在JL 家外拍摄到的番荔枝。
番荔枝的别名也叫佛头果、释迦果、唛螺陀、洋菠萝、蚂蚁果。如照片所看到的，它真的有很多忙碌的蚂蚁爬来爬去。(时间：黄昏）
.
These photos were captured outside JL's house.
"Custard-apple" is another name for "sugar apple"
The other names for the chinese translation are “Buddha head fruit” , "Siddhattha fruit" and " ant fruit". As you can see from these photos , there are really a lot of ants around the fruit. ( Time : in the evening)
因为它的表皮很像外表释迦牟尼的佛头，
因此，台湾人习惯称呼“释迦”。
.
Since the appearance of the custard apple looked like the Buddha' head hence the Taiwanese like to call this fruit " Siddhattha fruit".
.
.
它的叶子可以拿来做染料，墨汁，纹身，媒染剂。
有些人还用它的叶子来医治肿瘤和癌症。
.
The leaves also provide ingredients used to make dyes, stains ,inks , tattoos and mordants. The leaves are believed to have healing properties and have been used against tumour and cancer.( from Wiki).
以下两张照片是从别的地方拍摄到，
所以光线也会有点不同。
这个是在中午十二时多拍得。
.
The following photos were taken from elsewhere. It was in the afternoon so the lighting and exposure of the photos are different.

wah, very nice photos la. I like that one took during evening. Long time didnt take this fruit, but hardly find this in wet market here. Maybe I should plant it, hehehe.
ReplyDeleteI missed this fruit, haven't had one for a long time! I have no idea it has so many names! Great photos! Bought a new camera yet?
ReplyDelete台湾的“释迦”很大一个的,里面果肉又厚又多,果肉又甜又多汁,我是它的粉丝...好想念它...这里偶尔可以在水果摊看到,不过是泰国品种的..又小粒,肉又不多,你们有机会去台湾一定要吃“释迦”...
ReplyDeleteEmile : Thanks for praising me again !
ReplyDeleteIf you want to grow this tres ,you bette grown inside your house because it is too tempting and a lot of people like to pluck it without your permission ! JL 's custard apples are always stolen !
Colin : Don't you have custard apple in Texas ?
Thanks for the compliment !
嘻嘻，I still have thousands of photos to stand-by ( exaggerate ! )
Nancy : 因为看了“食字路口”，一直很想去台湾。为什么现在还没去？ 答案就是你时常听到的那句话！“MYQ"!
好羡慕你有一颗番荔枝果树，因为那是阿庆的最爱^^
ReplyDeleteNo custard apple tree in Texas. I think its a tropical fruit, I'm not sure.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your thousands of photos!
dolphing , 嘿，稀客， 欢迎你来这里。
ReplyDelete那棵番荔枝是我朋友JL种的，却常常被人偷！
Colin : I should have asked you if you have custard apple selling in the supermarket ?
ReplyDelete我和nancy一样， 我吃过台湾释迦， 现在看见你的照片， 那种甜到‘漏’的口感，我又想念了，哈哈。。只好看照片止渴。。。
ReplyDeleteixus 980 is, 我会再看看， 谢谢你呀。你打算买了吗？
zeesiew : 天气和品种会影响水果的生长。台湾的天气和这里的天气不同，所以水果的口感也有少许不同。
ReplyDelete原来他的叶子有好处的，谢谢分享！
ReplyDelete没想到原来这么多朋友都爱吃啊！
ReplyDelete我一面看的时候就一面在想，小时候我很常吃，怎么现在都吃不到？现在好想去找看哪里有的卖?
键轩惠馆：对于叶子能治病，我可并不完全同意。你只能当作参考好了。
ReplyDelete温馨小屋： 我也是以前有吃，可能它的卖价和收藏时间让水果贩无利可图，所以没人种，也就没人卖了！（但是如果有市场要求，也是有人种的啊 ！
我外婆家门口有一棵很大棵呢！可惜，因是非法屋，现在家没了，树也没了。以前多到没人要吃，现在想吃，有时也难买。我的孩子很喜欢吃，看到一定叫我买给他吃。
ReplyDelete幸福太太：现在菜市场里也很难见到它们的踪影。
ReplyDeleteI like this fruits...
ReplyDeleteSomewhere in Singapore : I did't see any custard apple sold in Singapore's supermarkets like NTUC or Cold Storage . So , I think you seldom get to eat this .
ReplyDelete我爱吃这个呢！
ReplyDeletec@therine : 如果它熟了，味道会更加甜美，不是吗？
ReplyDeleteCustard Apple. We call it 'Angmo Laichi' in kampung.
ReplyDeleteHorlic : You are right ,番=angmo ，laichi =荔枝。
