About Santol

Santol is the fruit of Sandoricum koetjape, a tropical tree. Its thick yellowish to brownish rind encloses pale, soft pulp around several seeds; the flesh may be sour, sweet or a mixture of both, depending on the fruit.

The pulp is eaten fresh or used in regional preparations, and the rind is also used in some cooking. Santol is encountered as whole fruit or as separated pulp and rind. The edible portions have different textures and flavours, so the name does not refer to one uniform prepared ingredient.
