Hello there,

“Fruiting: ‘Pindo Palm’ produces 1 inch, yellow to orange colored, edible fruits that ripen in summer or autumn of the following year. The round, fleshy fruits contain a large seed and attract squirrels and other small animals. The fruit has an excellent sweet/tart tast. The fruits are used in the south to make jelly.”

“butia capitata trial recipe
have read with interest the requests for a recipe. We have two ten year old trees, producing 5 or 6 large bunches per palm. Recently picked up the fallen fruit, boiled them up in enough water to cover them after boiling for 10 minutes the fruit is soft, so mashed them up with a potato masher until the flesh breaks off the seed let cool, then squeezed through muslinto extract the juice, added sugar to taste, added pectin to set it, and arrived at a lovely jelly for bread. It has a slight woody after taste, may be the result of too much boiling or squeezing. but unset, without pectin, adding passion fruit, or other, seems to remove the after taste. Would like to receive other recipes, as have plenty of fruit

“the woody aftertast could be coming from the fact that you boil the flesh off of the seeds. Tyr removing the flesh then boiling to see if there is any difference.
