Dragon Fruit

Dragon Fruit, also known as Pitaya, is a beautiful tropical fruit in the cactus family. There are many different kinds of dragon fruits with a variety of shapes, sizes, colors inside and out, and flavor profiles. The most recognizable variety is the pink fruit with white or bright magenta flesh speckled with edible seeds. Although it is the fruit of a cactus, it does not have any spines or needles on the outer skin (unlike its cousin, the Cactus Pear). The white flesh dragon fruit is mild with a slight earthy flavor. The red flesh one is a little sweeter and more flavorful. The texture is often compared to kiwifruit.
