Andaliman and Asam Gelugur

Wilson Wong said at his blog : "The asam gelugor tree (Garcinia atroviridis) is another tree that produces fruit that is used in food. The tree is cultivated and native to Peninsular Malaysia, Thailand, Burma and India. The asam gelugur tree grows to a height of 20 m and has long trunk with characteristic drooping branches arranged in a tiered fashion around the central trunk. The leaves are dark green, shiny, long narrow with a pointed tand upturneded. Its flowers are dark red and the round yellow to orange and interestingly, Garcinia atroviridis usually bears female flowers only. Fruits are borne singly on twig ends."

And today I had package from Germany, which in are Andaliman and Asam Gelugur from my friend Tota. Really surprise because she gave so much...! I am really happy. Both of them (andaliman and asam gelugur) remind me to my father. He was best cook I ever had. After the andaliman I put under the sun, they're coming dry and open. I can see the seeds from Andaliman. All of them nice and smel very good...
