Abiu

LECHE FLAN FRUIT. My first taste of the Abui was when I was very young, something that my dad brought back from a trip to Hawaii. The taste of that piece of dehydrated fruit was so unforgettable that it stayed with me all my life. If you adore the taste of LECHE FLAN, that’s the taste notes of Abui, but because it’s fruit, 10x the deliciousness. There is no taste like it, it is difficult to describe it with justice. So you can imagine my surprise when someone mentioned in passing that there is a source of fresh Abui fruit in Nueva Vizcaya, somewhere near Solano, she cannot be sure. To find this farmer was one of our reasons for out trip to Nueva Vizcaya early this month. It took us two days to find the right town—it was not Solano—and then the right barrio, showing pictures of the fruit to a lot of people in the public markets, until we succeeded. We met the farmer—he had two trees. Those two trees have been our source of Abui for three years now, everytime it’s Abui season.

Back read the story:

I ABIU VERY MUCH. This entertaining video of Bill Merrill set us on the path of searching for ABIU and other rare fruits in the Philippines. We succeeded in finding Abiu, but only a few trees, only a few kilos every season in wondrous Nueva Vizcaya. This is Bill enjoying his Abui so much, it makes us want to eat Abiu right now.
