Fresno Farmer harvests sweet jujube fruit gaining popularity

A sweet, football-shaped fruit called jujube is gaining traction in the Central Valley and beyond.

八百屋さんで生のjujube (ナツメ)売ってた。干したものしか食べたことなかったので買ってみた。リンゴにちょっと似ているけどカリカリではない。軽い甘みがあって美味しい。そのまま食べるんじゃなくて、蜂蜜で煮てテチュ茶にするとか、料理に使ってみようかな
#ナツメ #jujube

Listened to a podcast a few weeks ago where someone was talking about growing #jujube, which I have never eaten. For some reason it stuck with me.

So was surprised to find them in Woolies this morning, I bought 500g tub of them that were marked down 👍. They are like slightly chewier crunchy apple mixed with a slight date flavour. Yummy, but A didn't like. I might try slicing some for the lunch box, but otherwise I will look for some recipes and see what I can cook with them.

Jujube witches' broom phytoplasmas inhibit ZjBRC1-mediated abscisic acid metabolism to induce shoot proliferation

Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.), an important species in the Rhamnaceae family, has been cultivated in China for over 7,000 years and is vulnerable to Jujube witches' broom (JWB) disease. This disease, caused by the JWB plant pathogen, leads to overgrowth of axillary buds, affecting plant health and yield.
