GetNerfedOn 3,254 Posted September 11 This is inspiring me to make my own variant. Full compliments to this pie, this is evidently well-baked. The pastry looks golden-brown and crusty, and the filling looks as delectable as dragonfruit should A challenge would be Dragon Chili Salad, but.... the outcome of that remains highly unclear. I don't think the mild-sweet-sourness of Dragonfruit would meld well with spice of any sort Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are many variants of this fruit, some taste like kiwifruit, others just taste weird. the red one is the classic one tho since it looks like dragon scales.

Lemme get into detail here: the dragon fruit you used is similar to the one i grow, with the red interior flesh, Hylocereus costaricensis. I would note that I would prefer this over the white variant, Hylocereus undatus, because the latter one has an thin, sharply sour layer of flesh between the skin and the rest of the fruit's interior. This, however, is purely personal preference; if you remove the sour layer, the two variants taste alike. You do need to add some complements to the fruit filling bc dragon fruit is super mild. @minespatch's suggestion of balsamic vinegar may be fine... I suggest honey or some sweetener 21 hours ago, Canis said: TIL dragonfruit is an actual thing.

G-Forces 103 Posted September 12 I used sugar and a little bit of maple syrup to sweeten it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
