This longan tree was grown by my friend, Khairah a few years ago in her garden. The tree has borne quite a lot of fruits. When I went over to her house last week, she plucked some of the fruits for me to try. How did they taste like? Actually like the longans we buy in the market except the flesh is not as thick as those from China or Thailand.
Whenever I make some Chinese Dessert, I like to use the dried longan as one of the ingredients. The Chinese believe that the longan has a relaxing effect and it is considered a 'warm' fruit.
