I love when Claud calls Jessica 'darling' . just the way she always says it. 😂😂 "I dont think thats a fruit darling"
Lizz - the British sarcasm 😂
Jessica, you have the best speaking voice! You could easily be a narrator or read audio books! I would definitely listen:) so calming
I really want her to narrate documentaries :D They'd be awesome.
I'm up for it!
Oh god yes please I love her voice
Oh my gosh, imagine the decline in road days if Jess told you you'd gone too far and to turn around as soon as possible...
the small banana - “pisang emas” or golden banana: its not ripe enough.. needs to have more black spots on it. “dragoneye fruit” is actually longan not langsat..soursop if its slightly off you can mix/pulverise with some water to make into a drink! dragonfruit come in 3 varieties red, white & yellow. the red ones can and usually do discolour ur no 1s & 2s lol kedongdong is one of those that taste slightly better pickled or dipped in prune dust. the “potato” think was the chiku.. dont eat the skin. impressed so many fruits lasted that long in your fridge.. durian warning.. taste and smell does linger ;)
taevac taevac in my region longan were used to be known as 'mata kucing'.Actually longan are chinese names for mata kucing
" i can't even bite it"
" i don't think that's a fruit darling " lol
You two are so cute and this was a really fun and educational video
😀❤️
I love when Jessica says "here they're just 'fruits' " because as a brazilian I'm looking at the table and the cempedak (that we call jaca) and I'm like "well, those aren't weird at all and now I really crave for some pitaya"
I like your style for a taste test video, try out food, review them, and you throw in some trivia here and there!
Your not alone Claudia seeing tiny things and thinking its bugs.
Glad the format is working! I love some good trivia x
I think it is cute how Claud sees small things and thinks it is maggots !
I grew up climbing trees and eating these fruits without even checking for maggots haha and when I saw one, I would casually take it off my fruit with my own finger!!
I think these two should totally spend a week in Brazil, they would love our beaches !
Especially Fernando de Noronha, which is a famous island !
@@ListenToTheMoonlight that sounds like a great childhood!! I’d love to see them go to Brazil :D
Rambutan used to be my favourite fruit... but I haven't had one in like 17 years since moving from Indonesia to Canada. I miss you fuzzy, tasty fruit.
I live in montreal and rambutan can be found in some asian markets. If you live anywhere near toronto and vancouver you should be able to find them?
I can find those at a flea market in Texas!! They are so tasty!
The powdery thing they sprinkle on fruits is called 'asam powder'. Big fan from Malaysia!
We have lots of these in Brazil. Passion fruit (maracujá, as we call it here) is supposed to help you relax. We have maracujá juice almost everyday in my house. It's great to make mousses (dessert) and pies. Star fruit is our "carambola" and the rose-something fruit is our "jambo" (my grandmother had two jambo trees in her backyard, it was my childhood fruit). Glad to see you guys are relaxing, having fun and getting to try new stuff.
Heyyy we call the rose apple the same thing! It’s JAMBU!!! 😍 I wonder how it happened to be same...
This was adorable and amusing 😂 Also quick note! Most of the words in Malay with "a" are pronounced "ah" instead of "eh", the "c" are pronounced as "ch" instead of making a "k" sound, and "e" are pronounced similar to how one would say "err" instead of the usual e in egg! So the cempedak sounds kind of like chem-pe-duck
I thought I didn't like jumpsuits but then I saw the one Jessica is wearing... Such a fun video, your interaction is always a pleasure to watch.
I thought the same and I found one that was basically a shorts and tanktop combo while on vacation. It's super cute :D
Oh my God!!!!!! We can get the Rose Apples in Puerto Rico, it's my favorite fruit ever ❤❤❤. We call them Pomarosa. We wont have Pomarosa on this year's season because Hurricane Maria destroyed the trees. I'm sooooo jealous of you guys now for having those!!! Buen provecho!
Claudia being disgusted by the possible presence of maggots hhahahahahahh! These fruits look amazing! Some huge, some with crazy shapes, some both... Damn, nature
usually a few asian's fruit need special technique to open. Like : you must peel corner skin of belimbing. you just need peel outer skin of papaya, chiku (like sweet potato), kedondong. and center of kedondong is not to eat
I was so scared for your white sofa when you were cutting into the fruits 🙈
I’m already in love with this just because of the thumbnail!! 😂
Love your videos Jessica. I generally don’t like vlogs but I really enjoy your vlogs in Malaysia. I also just find you very interesting as a person and feel like I watch your channel for enjoyment but still learn things every time I watch one of your videos. I also love your vintage outfits. ❤️❤️
The Dragon Eye fruit you had there is actually not Langsat, but Longan. A smaller version of it has thinner flesh, and is called Mata Kucing, which literally translated, means Cat's Eye.
I love when Jessie has to swoop in and rescue Claud from something scary! My Mum has a massive fear of maggots too
I think it's a completely reasonable fear.
ah you two are the cutest! probably my fav couple on youtube tbh haha enjoy all the delicious local fruits and foods before you venture back to england!!!!
As usual, very fun video! Thank you for the entertainment and education! Poor Claudia traumatized by the maggot! I would be as well! Always such a pleasure to watch the two of you interact so lovingly!
I’m from the Philippines and we have most of the fruits you showed in the video :) it’s interesting to watch your reactions, cause growing up, i love them all haha. I’ve also recently discovered your channel, and i think you’re very endearing :) can’t wait to watch more videos !
Here in Brazil those fruits are very common, it's funny hear you call them with other names.
The first one is called "Jaca", the second "Banana Maçã" (it's strange because the name means "Apple Banana"), the third is "Jambo", the Fourth is called "Carambola".
Good video guys!
I've only ever found starfruit as "carambolas" here in the States. Now I know why!
The powdery thing the fruit sellers sprinkle on guavas is a type of ground/powdered dried plum mixed with sugar 😊btw the dragon eye fruit is 'longan', rather than langsat which has a bit more acidity to it
Star shaped fruit must have been the inspiration behind the poaupu (no idea how it was spelled) fruit from kingdom hearts (video game from PS2 days). It’s said in the game that if two people share the same poaupu fruit it bonds them together for life. It’s a sweet idea of strengthening any kind of relationship this way and with that in mind, Jessica and Claudia, you have strengthened your marriage bond even further (if that’s possible as I don’t know you), nice idea though...
Annette Nash It was a direct reference to the Star Fruit!
K W are you saying that the myth from the video game is what is said about it? Or just that they used the fruit for the game?
Annette Nash As far as I know, Just the fruit
The joint "ooooh"s of excitement cutting open the potato fruit! 😂 Y'all are so cute!💗
The banana may not be ripe enough. That star fruit looked a tad over ripe. Normally we cut out tip of the star.
The 'durian belanda' / soursop are usually lousy. The good ones are those ripen on the tree which is difficult to find.
That is not langsat. It is cat's eye.
The original kedondong is very sour. That one is a hybrid.
that last image as a freeze frame is STUNNING
The powder that the fruit seller use to sprinkle on top of the Guava is called "asam boi". It is made of Plum. So, it is plum powder.
this upload really made my day :) 💖💖
This is funny, because in Australia we get all these fruits just in our local supermarket.
Also, we call those bananas Lady Fingers here. And the reason they're firm is because those aren't ripe. They need to be yellow with a few black spots/marks on them to be ripe.
I find it interesting how some of those fruits are from the America continent (like guava, dragon fruit, passion fruit and papaya) and here (at least in Brazil) you can find rose apple, jackfruit and star fruit, which are from Asia.
One of my favorites Asian fruit: Lychee.
I love 85% fruits u have here. But dragon eyes is actually 'mata kucing @ longan'. Langsat is a totally different fruit. It is not as sweet as mata kucing. So happy u guys are trying out our locals product.
The powdery thing served with guava is plum powder. A little sweet and sour which enhances the flavour of the fruit. I love it!
Best thumbnail EVER, at least if you watched last weeks cooking session. As soon as I saw it, I thought “OH NO!!! NOT AGAIN, Claudia will not eat the rest of the trip”! LOL 😂😝😱 Love to you both as always!! 💕
Mangosteen is AMAZING, it has an absolutely amazing citrus taste (in my opinion).
I love this one! Keep em coming! Btw, the way you gals pronounce cempedak is almost correct but the first syllable is supposed to sound like 'Ch-' in 'champion'. ❤
Thanks to all of you now we know how to pronounce it :)
Rambutan is definitely my favourite fruit!! I get so much of it whenever I'm in SE Asia. So excited to go back.
It’s pronounced as cherm-per-duck, my lovelies! 😘
LOVE YOUR BLOGS SO FUNNY AND INFORMATIVE
Cempedak is in the jackfruit family, but the seeds can be eaten. Sta apple is a native SEA fruit - also available in Thailand, PH. There's a round fruit variety of it in different colors. Hope it helps!
I seriously enjoyed the subject of the video but I think I Loved your interaction and fun with each other even more. :)
I am not sure if they have this in Malaysia, but salak, or snake-skin fruit is often found in Indonesia. That fruit has an interesting taste too
Pomelos skins are used in a dish were it's soaked in water until it's soft. Then mixed with soy sauce and garlic to form a dish. I'm not sure if it is an actual Chinese dish but my grandma use to make it.
The 'spicy sugar' on the cut out fruits is actually powdered asam boi + sugar!
This was so entertaining! Some of this fruits grow in my home town in northern Australia. Or close by. Starfruit is also called carambola. Try and get a custard apple if you see one. They’re delicious… and I hate passionfruit too.
When you eat belimbing (star fruit), cut off the star's edge because that's usually what make it bitter and weird. The inside part is quite sweeter and not bitter at all.
Most of these fruits are popular in Brazil too. We call the jambu, 'jambo' (sounds quite similar, actually). The star fruit is named 'carambola'. The guava is called 'goiaba' and we also have a fruit named 'sapoti' that looks almost the same as the sapodilla. The jackfruit is called 'jaca'. Lots of asians fruits were brought to Brazil by the portugueses, when we were still a colony. They adapted so well to our tropical climate, that, nowadays, most people think they're local.
The jackfruit is interesting. If u cook with it before its ripe you can change the flavor of it. We use it at a restaurant where i live to replace pork on our vegan menu. Use it to replace bbq pork on our signature jackfruit nachos. Taste exactly like bbq pulled pork and its used in a lot of dishes on the entire vegan menu
i love Claud's necklace!
Living in Hawaii I recognize many of these fruits! Yummy ❤️ I love me some Rambutan, guava (best juice ever), and lilikoi (aka: passionfruit) on certain days when I want sour. Fruit. Yeah! Love the vids, you're inspiring me to travel to Southeast Asia once more 😃
Fun fact: the jackfruit can be eaten both ripe and unripe! Ripe fleshy bits are sweet and best eaten cold/frozen and the unripe ones can be cooked with barbecue sauce and have the look and texture of pulled pork.
star fruits, guava fruits are also native to South America! as well as the little bananas and papayas actually almost all of the fruits you showed..... i loved them since childhood tbh!!✨
Mangosteen is my fave!! Btw the dragon eye fruit that u ate isn't langsat rather it's actually buah mata kucing ( direct translation: cat's eye fruit) . langsat has the same outer appearance but on the inside the seeds are tiny and u can split the flesh similar to how u could with a mangosteen. :)
I feel so nostalgic!! I've never had some of these fruits since I can't remember when!!
Ok so Claud licking fruit is my new aesthetic
Just subscribed to your channel few days ago and I can't believe you've been here before!! ❤
I never have to explain Asian fruits to my friends anymore. I’m just gonna send them this video. Thank you very much!
We’ve got rose apples in the Maldives and they’re generally sweeter if they’re harvested and grown in the dry season
Papaya is great with lemon juice and sesame seeds sprinkled on. You should try it.
The green one in the bunches looks like a june plum - a young (unripe) plum. The middle usually has a hard spiky pit and would be slightly tart when full (fit ) when green and more sour when ripe with a yellow skin. Its popular in Jamaica where I'm from.
The powdery stuff that you add to the guava (or sometimes the rose apples and mango even) is actually sweet prune powder (aka serbuk asam) and it adds flavour to the otherwise slightly bland fruits :)
The fruit looked beautiful well most of it 😋 You guys are so adorable together 😊 I was laughing so much 😅 If you can do more of these videos,😇 it was funny 😁
I like your accent. I hear it all the time (being a speaker for north american english), but sometimes I hear it more, on words like body, banana, lychee. It's very cute, these vowel differences. ^^ Awesomely fun video as always xx (also juicy fruity what, Claudia? XD)
Star fruit, jambu, guava, the tiny banana called banana apple and papaya also is very common in the north est of Brazil ! 💜
Guava and Papaya are native to Mexico as well (where I'm from - though guava is a LOT smaller in Mexico) and growing up every morning I'd have a drink with papaya, guava, and orange (freshly squeezed that morning) and it is THE BEST!
Passionfruit and star fruit I definitely sprinkle just a little bit of sugar on to cut the tartness.
Passion fruit on papaya is literally life. So freaking good.
the Dragon Eye fruit reminds me of ginups you can find in the Carribean
carambola(star fruit), guineos niños(baby banana), pomarosa(rose apple), parcha (passion fruit),guanaba (soursop), guava and papaya..we have most of those here in Puerto Rico and they are all great..also papaya and bananas make a great smoothie :-)
the powder they sprinkle on the fruits are actually made of Sour plum （plum pickled with salt）。
Jackfruit is also often used as a vegan meat substitute because its stringy, meaty texture and neutral taste can be dressed up to pass as chicken or pork with the right seasoning!
Rambutan, Lychee, and Longan (Dragon Eye) are some of my favorite fruits. I guess there's a trend to what I like haha
We like all of your vids!
When I was younger I once bit into a plum and found a maggot inside (there was screaming, lots of screaming). Ever since I've always halved plums before eating them just to make sure that there's not another maggot.
The fruit that you try first for the second batch of fruit look and might even be a kumquat.
A lot of these fruit are very popular in South Africa.
In Jamaica we call your Dragon Eye fruit Guinep. They're very tasty if they're ripe but when they're under ripe they can scratch your throat if you're not careful. Lychee is also called Chinese Guinep probably because it was brought to the island by Chinese immigrants.
If you wait for the guava to turn yellow/pink then they taste so much better ♡
Mangosteen is THE BOMB. Soooooo good.
They sprinkle a sour plum flavoured salt on the guava slices to give it a bit of kick.
It's Durian I most remember from Malaysia, I remember the signs outside many places saying you couldn't bring them inside.
All of these fruits remind me of my childhood, I've had all of them one way or the other and loved most of them. The fruit that Jessica and Claudia thought were loganberries are actually june plums, us Vietnamese usually eat 'em kinda unripe and pickled them in a salty sweet solution. You can also eat 'em ripe, at that point it kinda taste like a mango and a peach mixed together. The potato fruit or sapote/sapodilla is a bit different, you really have to let 'em soften up on the counter before eating or else it will have an astringent feel to it. Not good eatin'.
Lovely video and lovely ladies! Also, I feel like maggots were definitely not something I was properly prepared for before adulthood. Eew.
Guava with plum powder is EXCELLENT.
Okay...that guava does not look at all like the guava we have in HI.
The bananas look like what we call "apple bananas".
The star fruit is grown and eaten in HI, too.
That papaya looks beautiful. I enjoy eating it with lemon juice squeezed over the flesh (inside) of the papaya, and with tuna salad in the middle. YUM!
Love lychee!
A) You two are adorable
B) I have never seen a green pomelo before (the ones here are usually yellow.)
C) Longan is really awesome. As is passion fruit.
D) Dragon fruit is super expensive here which is :(
E) Rambutan
We have must of those in brazil and i never knew in english. Always good to learn something
Soursop and pomelo is the winner of all👏👏👏
Trying weird fruit is one of my favorite past times! I wish I could get my hands on more interesting fruits for a good price here in Chicago.
Language Learning Lounge a lot of local fruits don’t travel well and are best experienced in the country of origin. So good reason to travel more :D
amiesparkle00 definitely one of the reasons i love travel!
Hello from the Dominican Republic! LOVE your videos, love to see you happy.
We consume some of those fruits here in DR and I can say from my experience that some of the ones that didn't taste that great are actually better in a shake, or just plain juice.
Like yourselves, I wouldn't choose to eat guava, papaya, "elongated potato fruit" or passion fruit (not Claudia), however, I love juices/shakes with those fruits. My sister and I call the passion fruit shake "Happiness", it's that good, it's an excellent jam and we even have passion fruit cheesecake here xD LOVE it.
K, bye.
PS. You're so great together can't wait for you to have your babies!
Mini bananas are available in the US too, and honestly they're infinitely better than regular bananas. We can also get papaya, and when we buy it I enjoy having it with sugar and lime. Guava is only available in nectar form, and it's the pink Mexican guavas with the tiny seeds, not the green ones.
it's like how you would pronounce Churm-Pur-Dark of which all Rs are silent, and the ciku is CheeKoo (tbh it's my first time seeing a potato-shaped ciku) haha. and we'd normally eat the Starfruit, Jambu, Guava, PIneapple etc sprinkled with plum powder to make it less sour! and yes! Guavas, pineapples are commonly used in Rojak - and its sauce is sweet, spicy, and sour! Also! the dragon eye is called Longan (Long-ahn), the duku langsat is another kind of fruit!
The potato fruit is called chico in the Philippines. The smell is comparable to alcohol that's why we often say "Amoy chico mo na" (You smell like chico already) when someone gets drunk.
Yza White kababayan!
for a couple years I used to spend my summer/winter breaks in Thailand, and I absolutely loved rose apple (both red and green ones), still love them but too expensive outside of southeast asia
So nice to see how Malaysia fruits are similar to Brazilian ones. Here we also have jambu, star fruit (we called it Carambola), Guava(goiaba) and Dragon eye(Pitomba here). You should try eating Guava with a sprinkle of salt.
If you ever find a place that sells them, give Asian pears a try! They are my absolute favourite fruit. Their insides look like an apple's. They're a summer fruit, though, so you're not terribly likely to find some before June or July at the earliest
We have almost all of these in South America, I'm lucky for our tropical weather! Saludos! 🤘🏼❤️
This may be totally random, but I would really enjoy you two doing a tea tasting video!
I love star fruit :)
There’s a markets in Australia that I can get it from and I always get some every time I go
