After the cactus fruit is cut, it will reveal the purple pulp with the same color as kiwifruit, and the pulp is covered with cactus seeds, just like looking at a pitaya.
The skin and meat of cactus are purple, which tastes like lemon and is very sour. Mexicans use it as a seasoning for cooking, or try to dry it. There are many small seeds in cactus fruit, which are actually edible.
Moreover, we will filter out all these seeds when juicing because that seed will hinder the taste. Although edible, it is not suitable for eating too much, because eating too much will cause indigestion and constipation!
The fruit of cactus is called cactus fruit. Generally, the growth period of cactus fruit is relatively long, only once every three or four years, and there are not many fruits each time. The skin of the fruit is covered with a layer of thorns.
But its nutritional value is very high. The pulp is rich in trace elements, protein, amino acids, vitamins, polysaccharides, flavonoids and pectin. Edible, with great efficacy.
