About Loquats, raw
Loquats are small, yellow-orange fruits with a flavor that sits somewhere between peach and citrus, mildly sweet with a gentle tang. The carbohydrate count is modest and fiber is decent relative to the low calorie load. Fat and protein are both negligible. They bruise easily and have a short shelf life, which explains why they rarely appear in American supermarkets despite being cultivated across the southeastern US, Japan, and the Mediterranean. Eat them fresh out of hand after peeling and removing the large seeds, or simmer into jam, poach in wine, or fold into fruit salads for a subtly exotic note.
