DRIED SNAKE FRUIT 100 g
Snake fruit, also known as Salak, is a fascinating tropical fruit native to South and Southeast Asia. The flesh embodies a delightful blend of sweet and sour flavors, reminiscent of a fusion of apple, banana, and pineapple, offering a crisp texture like an apple yet with more complexity in flavors.
Native to Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, and Vietnam, Snake fruit, or (Salacca zalacca), has a rich history, likely discovered by locals in the region centuries ago. Although its introduction to Europe remains unknown, the fruit is now cultivated in Ecuador and parts of Africa.
Snake fruit serves as an excellent source of essential vitamins and minerals such as potassium, magnesium, zinc, vitamin A, and vitamin C. Moreover, it is high in dietary fiber and contains antioxidants.
