.....that I have seen 'coconut flower' being sold by dozens on road side.
Considering my roots are from the 'land of coconuts' this one is a definite delicacy for me ;-). What makes it all the more special is the fact that my chances of tasting it before was purely based on luck !!!!

DeleteIsn't that germinated coconut? It is edible and I love it. Coconut flowers are those that we use for decoration for auspicious occasions. The flowers turn to coconuts. But this turns into coconut sapling.
ReplyDeleteho is tht how its called! I jus did a loose translation from whats called in mal\tamil :-P
DeleteI have known that they are auspicious. But, they are sold....first time I have heard. Nice shot.
