Peach Palm

S tier

Peach palm heart is the farmed product of pejibaye/peach palm plantations—fresh or jarred cylinders with clean flavour and consistent diameter. Fruit of the same palm is also eaten, but heart harvest focuses on young stems. Mildness suits both raw salads and cooked dishes without dominating. Prefer peach palm labeled hearts for sustainability. Sear cut rounds for smoky edges; marinate in citrus and chili. The everyday ethical heart of palm.
