The other day I was told by a Spanish lady that you can make jam from the
ripe fruit of monstera deliciosa. As I have about five on my plant that will
soon be ripe I would like to try, but I had never considered cooking the
fruit. She told me that cooking them removes the sharp crystals that are
between the segments, which makes sense. I have eaten the segments of the
fresh fruit before and it has a sort of banana-like taste and I am not at
all convinced that you can turn it into jam. Has anyone tried cooking the
fruit?
