The Tomato fruit you don't eat,you just make juice with it.
Que ud no lo coma no significa que haya gente que lo coma ,, yo por ejemplo .
of course you eat it is delicious!
sakura7748 we don't eat in in Ecuador in general for it is too sour so we use it to make it juice or to make shakes and then it becomes delicious
Neville Beater lol
Neville Beater yes you can do a juice with tree tomatoe
The uvilla is also called cape gooseberry or ground cherry or incan berry
You forgot to taste naranjilla. It's really good.
Straight up fuego
2nd was is known as a tomatilla, capuli are also known as wild black cherries, uvilla is also known as golden berries and they grow in the mountains,
"Tree tomato" its called actually and is used to make juice
tree tomato lol
Tree tomato because it grows in a tree and not in a plant like the regular tomato.
My parents are from Ecuador! I love this video!!!!!!
+Tanya Canepa Cool! I would love to know what they think about my video too!
You should do an everyday makeup tutorial?!!! I love how fresh and natural your makeup looks in your videos (:
+Joua Moua Thank you! A lot of people have requested an everyday makeup tutorial, so stay tuned for one soon! :)
the second fruit you taste its called tomato tree (tomate de arbol o tomatillo), as you see inside looks like a tomato but you get it from a tree, the taste is very sour, and it taste better with a little sugar, its commun to make juices from it.
The tomato is actually tomato de arbol which translates to "tree tomato." We make it in juice, very simple: peel the fruit and blend it with water and add sugar as you wish. You can also use milk instead of water.
I absolutely love your tasting videos. When you staid that you saved a fruit for the end, a few ran through my mind. One of them was actually Noni. I'm originally from Hawai'i and growing up Noni was coming in our household. However, rather than eating it my Mom used it more as a cleanser. She made a fermented juice out of it. As you showed the Noni, I couldn't help but to laugh because I was once curious too. Until I tried it! Lol. I had the same reaction as you did!
+kaylahlei I'm so happy to hear you enjoy the tasting videos! I didn't know noni grew in Hawaii! What do you mean by cleanser? Like for a juice cleanse?
She would ferment the fruit in a jar and drink the juice that would be released. It was more so a toxin cleanser, so when she had an upset stomach or a hangover lol, she would take it. She also took it once her menstrual cycle was over.
+kaylahlei Wow, very interesting! Thank you for sharing!
The "tomato" is a tomate de arbol, or "tree tomato". It is a relative of the better-known vine tomato. No one eats it as a fruit; only to make juice. Remove the skin (easiest way is to make two shallow cuts from top to bottom and back up again, to quarter the skin. Then dip in boiling water for a minute and the skin will peel right off.) Put the meat in a blender with some water and sugar, then strain to remove any remaining seeds. It's a delicious breakfast drink with scrambled eggs!
😂😂😂😂 on da las Fruit! luv ur videos!
thanks for your videos that give us more ideas about how is Ecuador by their food, landscape, culture or any experience that you can tell us about. thumps up for you and good luck in your next videos like this :)
+Wladimir Moreno I'm happy that you're enjoying my videos! :)
Nicole Chiu good to hear that Nikole hope to share experiences about anything around the world you doing well God bless your path always :)
I'm from Ecuador! and Dominican!
The first one is PITAJAYA, not pitaya, and yes its a variety of dragon fruit(: The second one is three tomato because the plant is bigger than the "vegetable tomato" and its usually used for juice. The Uvilla is called gold berry in USA. The red banana is not that common.
The tomate is actually called "tomate de árbol" and it's used to do juice (people add a lot of sugar because is a litte bitter) and it's used to do ceviche and others ecuadorians recipes as well. This fruit has a lot of vitamin C. Definitely, never eat the skin While you still in Ecuador, you should try: zapotes, moras, guayabas, orito (the smallest banana), naranjillas, guabas (the 2 kinds), pomarrosas, babaco and my favorite guanabana. Have fun!
+Rafael S Woo! So many fruits to try! Thank you for the suggestions! :)
the tomate de arbol, it's very sweet, you have to peel it .... also from where are you I have never hear of someone or know someone who put tomate de arbol to the ceviche... there is an aji recipe that has tomate de arbol
Omg you went to Cuenca that's were my parents were born
Noni or Nona is a medicinal fruit, people make juice, but I never tasted one, is really bad and stinks!!
And I never saw someone who eats that kind of tomate in that way. People make milkshake with that tomato and is delicious.
I have also tried jugo de tomate, and it was really good!
Nicole -Noni is for jucing - its normally left to ferment for the juice to seep out - very potent in its pure form.
haha you r right, usually is juice but I love to eat tomate de arbol like that with yogurt in the morning 😄
That was fun, but your knife handling terrifies me!
Noni is a medicinal "fruit" in home we have that plant but nobody eat it because stinks. Great video love it
Haha why do you grow it if you don't eat it?
its used as medical ingredient, we dont eat it as you did, i personaly dont like it but as it says that had medical properties its used to make some beverages as natural medicine
Noni juice is said to be very good to treat cancer and build up the immune system
thanks a mil!
The tomate de árbol put little bit of sal and it's good or as juice with sugar
+ECUA0806 Yes! Since I've recorded the video, I've tried jugo de tomate de árbol and it is delicious. :)
i'm from Ecuador and yes the fruta del arbol is very delicious :3
el tomate de arbol se pela y se hace jugo
Loving the uneven wallpaper. lol
Nice video would like to plant some of those fruits in Jamaica.
I like ver y much cuenca, Ive Heard a lot things great about that place keep it up baby
Im ecuadorian and i have never seen that fruit you tasted at the end... i wanna try it!! Lol
+shiroikuroi Good luck! XD
I'm from Ecuador. When I saw your face I remembered my face when I tried it. It's disgusting. I understand you. 😂😂😂
Hahaha! Glad I'm not the only one!
Noni is said to be a cancer preventer. I may not sure but there is another fruit you should try. I'm not sure if it's in season though. you should try a chirimoya.
The correct way to consume Noni is drinking the fermented juice which does not tastes as the fruit itself.
is not pitaya, is pitahaya
Both correct
Serious case of the runs
You should try Noni mixed with other fruits like pineapple and orange in juice, i've never tried to bite this fruit alone, it smells like sh.. 😁 im from Ecuador btw :) how long are you gonna stay here? You shoud visit "Molinuco Park" in "el valle de los chillos"
I was born in Cuenca,Ecuador
You can eat the out side
like your videos
The last fruit is for medicine
I really felt sorry for you when I saw you gonna try noni. It really smells and tastes like a puke.
with tomate its better do juice ;)
where are you from in the states?
Going to Cuenca in a few weeks. :)
+buzzz777 New York City. Have fun in Cuenca! :)
Have you ever tried Stevia? Well, Uvilla is the fruit they extract Stevia from.
Stevia comes from a leaf.
Mr. CC you have no idea about what you're talking about. Stevia is a small bush like plant and the leaves are used for their sweet taste. Uvilla is a larger bush in the nightshade family very similar to the tomatillo only the fruit is yellow when ripe. They are both very easy to grow here in San Diego.
Is Pitahaya not Pitaya...
its called tomate de arbol
1:56 that does not eat like that, it's done in the form of a drink
it is called puke fruit in USA
Giselle Toledo was that comment supposed to be rude?
Pitaya im from ecuador i had never try that one lol
anichigua
Pitajaya Not Ecuatorian , is Colombian, Peruvian , Mexican and Ecuatorian .
Please identify the fruit but eat it like the locals. The 'Tree Tomate' is drank as a juice since it is very tangy. You will enjoy it better. As you noticed the skin is NOT eaten! Bitter! Believe or not the locals have had centuries on how to eat it. Please follow their advise. Yes, capuli is the local cherry. Uvillas are delicious! Some platanos are to be cooked since they are too starchy. You were lucky with that one!. Last, be careful with that knife. Safety first! Rule of thumb, avoid fruit skins. The last fruit looked like a type of Guayaba/Chirimoya and yes you usually make jams with it since there is not enough sugars in it. Bugs love them though so be cautious. Remember most of the fruit is Very organic so no pesticides in it. Get a local guide. Pls wash the fruit or you are gonna get it the revenge of the Incas.
Actually the last fruit is noni, and is like someone said in other comment a medicinal fruit, it has very bad taste, so is mixed with other flavors to drink it as juice.
oops just heard you tried it lol.
+Gabriela Vazquez yes, we have cherimoya in the US... It is delicous! :)
Nicole Chiu where in the US? I'm from NYC and I've never seen one here.
+Gabriela Vazquez I was able to find them in the Chinese & Latin markets in Queens!
This is how it's supposed to be eaten. Start at 5:25. Apparently it's supposed to taste like creamy cheese. SO WEIRD. youtube(dot)om/watch?v=Z-oSLZpGA68
