Duku
Duku or lungsat are two very similar fruits found
throughout Asia. They come from the same family, look and taste identical, with
one difference. The skin of the lungsat contains a latex substance, which is
not poisonous, but causes the skin to stick slightly to the fruit, whereas the
duku has no latex and the peel is removed with more ease. Inside, the fruit has
5 segments, some of which has bitter seeds inside. It is a very sweet fruit and
can be prepared in a number of different ways, including being canned in syrup
or being dried like raisins.
