PRODUCTS RECIPES ABOUT US BLOG PREMIER PARTNER PROGRAM Rooting for You Malanga Malanga, similar to a yam in appearance and a potato in flavor, is a versatile root commonly used in Central American and Caribbean cooking. Malanga is notably given to patients suffering from stomach ulcers as it coats the lining of the stomach. This root vegetable can be compared to the taro and cassava but has a woodsy taste with a hint of black walnut. Especially common in Cuba and Puerto Rico, it is typically deep-fried as fritters or chips, but can be cooked in a variety of ways. J&C Tropicals carries malanga blanca, lila, isleña, coco, and amarilla (yellow).

PRODUCTS RECIPES ABOUT US BLOG PREMIER PARTNER PROGRAM You, Me & Lychee Lychee This small fruit packs a punch of sweet, fragrant flavor. Much like a rambutan, lychees have a unique outer “shell” with an opaque, almost grape-like white flesh that bears a seed. Also known as “alligator strawberry” for its spiked skin, young Lychees are green and once mature they will become blushed with pink, then bright red. The taste is acidic and sweet with floral notes, comparable to a grape. Lychee is related to the longan fruit, but the difference lies in the flavor as lychee is much sweeter in comparison. HOW TO EAT HOW TO STORE SEASON WHERE IT’S GROWN & SOURCED HEALTH BENEFITS Grab the stem and peel away the skin over a bowl using your fingers. Gently remove the inner seed. Eat on its own or add to fruit salads, cocktails, juices, and more.
