I didn't make some jam sadly 😕 I just didn't have enough of the fruit to make some. But a jam is still a burning desire! Hopefully I can find a good bunch of them one day and share that jam making little project with you guys 😊

If you have just enough of the delicioso in the future, you could add it to some other summery fruits such as pineapple, kiwifruit, apricot, nectarine and mango. You could just call it a 'summer fruit salad' jam. Sounds delicious, doesn't it?

It’s not the most delicious fruit in the world, lol. There are over 400 distinct fruit varieties around the world, so I know you’re just being enthusiastic about it. I’ve picked them myself and they’re pretty good, but I wouldn’t say they’re the “best”.. all tropical fruits, at their best, taste like heaven. However, I had a durian once that tasted like exploding orange sherbet soda, so, it’s all subjective, no? Wanna hit the big Isle of Havvai’i sometime? I invite everyone, so it’s not just you. Got something incredible to show you if you’re curious. Cheers 🍻

Wow, I have had an enormous and very mature monstera plant along my side fence (about 20 feet wide by 6 feet high) for the 3 years I've owned this home. It was planted by the previous homeowner and I had no idea that those weird things are edible! I have literally thrown out about 50+ of them over the years; the plant is that large! I have about 10 of the fruits out there right now!... As a matter of fact, one just fell off today! Thank you for the instruction! Definitely excited to try this. We also grow tons of bananas (I harvest and give out about 400-500 per year), as well as pineapples. Can't wait to add the monstera fruit to the harvest!

Excellent Roy! I cant wait until you try it and be sure to comeback and weigh in what you think. Its such a great fruit. That's a great size Monstera you got there! Be sure if you get enough fruit to try making some jam with it, that's the next thing I want to try... just need to find enough fruit :-) Sounds like you have a very nice smallholding there and very productive! :-)

Let us know what you think of it. Don't forget- you can't pick the little segments off and eat them until they come off easily. Otherwise it won't taste very nice. You have to wait for it to ripen, section by section.

This is possibly my favourite fruit ever! I've only had it three times but have loved it. It's also commonly called the 'fruit salad' plant as it really does taste like a bunch of tropical fruits all at once. My introduction to the plant was when I was a teenager. My family had a connection with a green grocer who would occasionally bring us fruit and veg. He taught me how and when to eat it. The last time was when I saw some for sale at the Sydney Royal Easter Show a few years ago. I wish I knew where I could buy these when in season. It's not something seen commonly at the grocery. I've thought about growing a monstero deliciosa plant but it could be such a hit-and-miss as to when or if it might grow the fruit.

@@JeanEDeaux although it does not get as cold in So Florida, we see many days in the 40’s during the Winter and it does not affect the plant one bit. It likes a moist soil and the richer the better but it will also get along fine in sandy soil, sun or shade. To be sincere, it’s almost it has the habit of weeds here, just grows no matter what. It’s a very inexpensive plant so you would not be taking a big risk to try it out. Here it’s being used more like a base plan for landscaping.

I have a massive Monstera growing in my small backyad in Melbourne, Australia which has been giving me fruit for the past 10 years. I learned through trial and error how to ripen them. I wrap them in any kitchen paper and put them in the cupboard until ripe. I have quite a bit in my freezer also because of how much fruit I got. I had radiation treatment for lung cancer in 2021 so now I like to eat it for more than just the marvelous flavour. Nice in a smoothie too.

I watch them now for about 10 to 12 months as they ripen. I pick them just before that and if I put it in a brown paper bag in the pantry, within 3-5 days it will have ripened to that falling apart bit by bit as it will still take another day or 2 to be totally edible. Also I found out that because of a medical issue with my tongue the little black bits that look like tea leaves burn my tongue & throat like pepper. So it's not sweet'n'sour, it's sweet'n'spicy. I have tried to rinse them all out and have had some success freezing the fruit instead of eating it. That way I end up with a whole piece of the fruit, not just a mouthful at a time.

Already tried it. For me it tastes just as a pineapple. Sadly I am very sensible for the stingy sensation, even kiwi and pineapple stings my tong. This fruit though, very very stingy, would much prefer to eat it as a jam or some kind of cooked juice.

Liked your vid very much until qou said "it's really a monster" - no... "monstera" derives from the latin word "monstrare" (show something) - it mean's through the "holes" in the leaves you can see something. No monster at all, please!

First time hearing about these plants and fruit. I assume they are found in tropical and sub-tropical climates. It's way too cold to grow them here in the Pacific Northwest region of the US.

No way! Really? You're shitting me! I've had these Monstera plants for decades and never got any fruit or knew that they could even produce any. Wow! I always thought they were just giant philodendron s! 😂 My houseplants have been keeping this a secret for all these years! 😂

Just found one of the fruits fallen on the ground and it has the scales falling off... I tried a few pieces and there were shards even still, didn't much like that feeling I can say. I will attempt more of the fruit in a couple days, but I am not completely sure it will be worth it vs the discomfort if I get it wrong.

After peeling, you can put it on a kitchen sieve and rinse under running water then eat. It reduces the stinging after-effects.

I’ve just tried this for the first time as a friend gave me a couple from her plants. I waited for the buttons to drop off. Though I did eat some rafieds my mouth felt weird but I’ve been nibbling at it a little each day.

We just got a plant that had the fruit and the scales were falling off. Before trying the fruit I did some research (including this video). It really tastes great, but I can feel a bit stingimg around my lips, similar to eating kiwi. I guess it is a good idea to check if you have any kind of allergic reaction before pigging out.

Hi folks, I didn't obsess when you reran the video I missed the first time! So any who, I have this Monstera, I bought yesterday at Walter Andersons and want to give it the the culture to thrive in and fruit. What nutrients does it need? I'm so glad to know about the watering. Always appreciating you folk's!

once the greenhouse is finished ill start propagating this plant as it gives food in return for growth. i cant wait to grow all the plants that give fruit nuts and medicine and resell them to other people like ourselves who are looking to grow a food forest. always a great video alex cheers

😅 it's a Yorkshire accent but I've lived in Spain for many years now so things slowly change when you have the habit of speaking to nonnative English speakers... otherwise they wouldn't understand a thing 😂
