Bael Fruit – Trying Interesting Fruit For the First Time!

Bael fruit, which is also commonly known just as bael, or officially as aegle marmelos, is a fruit that’s native to India, but is common throughout Southeast Asia and China. In Thailand you’ll find dry bael fruit all over the markets, and it’s boiled and made into a drink – like kind of a cross between a tea and a fruit juice. But it’s very rare to find fresh bael fruit in Thailand, so when I was at a market and I found some, I had to buy a few and try them out as fresh fruit.

Bael fruit has a very hard outer and woody shell, similar to a wood apple or a coconut. In order to open a bael you have to either smash it on the ground, or also you can hit it with the back dull end of a knife. It should eventually come open and you’ll see an amazing interior.

You can eat all of the inside contents of the bael fruit. Some of the soft fruit has an almost caramel taste to it, and then there’s also some woody tasting parts as well. It’s an amazing fruit with many health benefits.

Bael tea is wonderful, but if you ever get a chance to try bael fruit, you should go for it!
