How to pick the best passionfruit at the supermarket

Score yourself a winner!

Passionfruit is having a moment right now. It’s in season and delicious, but how do you pick the best passionfruit when they all look and feel the same?

The folks at Australian Passionfruit have some tips for you.

Pick plump fruit 

Look for passionfruit that is plump and smooth, but heavy for its size – that means there’s more pulp inside.

Freeze for later

Make the most of the summer passionfruit surplus by freezing your fruit for later. The whole fruit can be frozen, or you can scoop out the pulp and put it into ice cube trays or popsicle moulds for a sweet frozen treat or tasty addition to your drink.

Fun fact

Did you know that one serve of passionfruit (2x passionfruit) is an excellent source of fibre, vitamin C, and is low in kilojoules?
