One of the great things about being in Hungary is to taste many new things.
Naspolya's are one of the most interesting. They grow on a tree and in English they are called medlar. The dictionary says that it is a small deciduous Eurasian tree of the rose family whose fruit resembles a crab apple and is used in preserves.
They each have five seeds in them which takes up a lot of room in the fruit.
To eat them one just peels off the top and suck out the fruit and spits out the seeds.
The texture resembles applesause and I don't even have to cook it.
This picture has nothing to do with nasplya's. It is a picture taken from our bedroom window this morning of the sunrise. What a beautiful world no matter where we are.
Those look really interesting to eat. How fun that you get to try so many new things. What a beautiful sunset in the last picture.
