This past Monday in my Deluxe Desserts class, one team was garnishing their plates with dragon fruit.  I had never tasted this before, only seen it in pictures.  The beautiful exterior as well as interior promised a lush tropical flavor.  However, I was met with a very mild- almost neutral tasting fruit.  The flavor reminded me of an underripe apple.  The texture was weird for me, it felt like a mealy apple with kiwi seeds in it.  Overall, I’d eat it again if it was part of a dessert or meal.  The price of it is not worth the taste, but perhaps it is worth it for the dramatic visual it brings.
