Black Sapote Eco Summary

Product Details

Black Sapote is a fruit native to Central America with a series of properties, among which are:

Helps prevent anemia.
It improves digestion and is considered a natural laxative when consumed fresh.
Provides an instant dose of energy to your body.
It is credited with antibiotic properties.
Helps strengthen the immune system.

Season calendar

In Tenerife, the organic sapote season varies depending on the variety grown and local weather conditions. In general, the harvest calendar is:

Black sapote (Diospyros digyna): November to April.
White sapote (Casimiroa edulis): from March to June.
Mamey sapote (Pouteria sapota): from May to September.

These periods may vary slightly depending on the specific microclimate of the area, but in Playa San Juan, with its warm and sunny climate, good production is favored.

Selection tips

Here are some tips for selecting the perfect organic sapote:

Color and texture: Depending on the variety, it should have a uniform skin and be slightly soft to the touch. A very hard sapote is not yet ripe.
Aroma: A ripe sapote gives off a sweet and pleasant aroma.
Weight: It should feel heavy for its size, indicating good pulp and juiciness.
No visible damage: Avoid fruit with bumps, cracks or signs of mold.

Conservation

Storage: We recommend leaving it at room temperature and avoiding using the refrigerator, as it could lose its properties and texture.

I was dying to try black sapote, and the one they bring from Playa San Juan has blown me away. The pulp, when it's perfectly ripe, is incredibly creamy, almost like a natural pudding. Honestly, if you weren't told what it was, you might think it was a light chocolate dessert, but without the cocoa!

If you enjoy experimenting with new flavors and supporting local produce, you have to try it. Just make sure it's nice and soft before eating it, like a very ripe persimmon.

I prepared it by mixing the pulp with a little orange juice and honey, and it's the healthiest and most delicious dessert I've had in a long time. Plus, since it's organic, I have peace of mind knowing it's pure fruit without pesticides.
