Yellow Dragon Fruit

A tier

Yellow dragon fruit (often Selenicereus megalanthus / yellow pitaya) wears thin yellow skin with spines or scars where spines were, and white pulp that is typically sweeter and more aromatic than common pink-white export fruit. Size is smaller; price is higher. Flavour justifies the specialty tag when fully ripe. Handle spines carefully if not fully cleaned. Chill and scoop; brix can surprise fans of bland pink types. Shorter shelf life and lower yields keep it premium. Serve alone so sweetness is noticed.
