Longans

Longans

EverydayFresh

Longans are small, round tropical fruits native to Southeast Asia, closely related to lychees and rambutans. The translucent, juicy flesh has a mildly sweet floral flavor with less acidity than lychees, encased in a thin, brittle shell that is easily peeled to reveal a glossy black seed. Fresh longans provide moderate vitamin C and potassium, with their natural sugars contributing to a higher carbohydrate content compared to many other fresh fruits. They are typically eaten raw as a snack or dessert fruit after removing the inedible seed.
