We also have a loquat tree in our backyard, and had no idea what they were at first! 🙂 Ours had at least a hundred (probably many hundreds) this year. It’s a beautiful tree.
How do you eat them? With the peel, or without? The peel can be pretty bitter, but the kids have been eating directly from the tree with the peel. I prefer peeling them first which makes them taste very sweet…even better than apricots (which I love)!
Any interesting ideas or recipies using loquats? Tips and tricks for preparing and eating them? I’ve heard you can make a loquat marmalade, but that’s a bit too over my head.
