Pomelos

Pomelos are a type of citrus fruit that are a hybrid between pomelos and mandarins. They are native to Southeast Asia and are known for their large size, thick skin, and sweet, juicy flesh. Pomelos are typically round or oval in shape and can weigh up to 3 kilograms. The skin of a pomelo is thick and rough, with a green or yellowish color. The flesh is segmented into sections, each containing several seeds. Pomelos are often used in juices, jams, and desserts, and are also eaten fresh. They are a popular fruit in many Asian countries, including China, Japan, and Vietnam. Pomelos are typically harvested in the winter and are available year-round in many markets. They are a good source of vitamin C and other nutrients, and are often used in traditional medicine for their health benefits. Pomelos are also known for their distinctive aroma, which is often described as a mix of citrus and floral notes.
