Karonda
Karonda’s ripeness depends on its end use. If intended for use as a vegetable, the fruits should be plucked while still under ripe. This is apparent by the fruit’s greenish white color.
When fully ripe, no hint of white is present on the skin. These fruits are selected for canning, preserving and pickling. Some of the fruits grow dark red when fully ripe; others grow dark purple.
In its raw state, the fruit is sour and acidic with little sweetness. In its ripest phase it becomes a bit sweeter.
