About Biriba

Biriba is the edible fruit of a tropical tree, usually eaten ripe as fresh fruit. It is generally round to heart-shaped, with a green, knobbly exterior that becomes yellowish as it ripens and softens.

The pale, soft flesh is sweet and aromatic, with dark seeds embedded throughout; the seeds are not eaten. Ripe fruit is commonly scooped from its skin, while the fruit may also be used in drinks or desserts. Ripeness affects its softness and flavour, and descriptions can vary among cultivated forms.
