Mark Twain la llamó la fruta más deliciosa conocida por el hombre. Sabe a natilla de plátano y se magulla igual.

12 pairings for Chirimoya.

Limón

classic

No acid whatsoever in the flesh; without citrus it collapses into perfumed sugar.

Crema

common

Already custard-textured; the dairy extends it rather than changing anything.

Vainilla

common

The fruit smells of vanillin already. This is confirmation, not addition.

Banano

common

Shared isoamyl acetate. Blended, the two are chemically almost the same smoothie.

Naranja

common

Spain grows both in the same valleys; citrus acid over custard flesh, nothing else.

Coco

common

Two lactone fats; the milk gives the flesh a body it starts to lose the moment it ripens.

Pisco

uncommon

Muscat esters and a floral custard fruit; both Andean, both perfumed.

Maracuyá

uncommon

Sharp tropical acid against blank sweetness; the pairing is a correction.

Eucalyptol cuts a sweetness with no acid to cut it; sharper than a citrus would be.

Sake

rare

Ginjo esters and custard fruit run on the same molecules. It reads as one drink.

Cocoa butter on custard flesh is fat on fat, and only the perfume survives.

Nutty solids over banana-vanilla; it starts tasting like a tarte tatin from the tropics.
