Local Fruit: Siniguelas
Siniguelas in view! O! the joy! Here is another local food I discovered here on Guam. This bite sized fruit is similar to a plum. The skin is crisp and the inside juicy. Look for them at a farmer's market...or make friends with a farmer...
I love siniguelas. When I was a kid, we had a siniguelas tree in my grandparents yard. They put a piece of plywood in the tree and us kids would sit up there and eat the fruit straight off the tree. We lost the tree during one of the typhoons. I haven't had siniguelas in so long. I'll be on the look out for it now. Thanks.
Drea - I've seen them awhile back at Dededo Flea Market. Too bad the typhoon wiped your tree out :( Leesa, I think they call them something else in the PI.
