JAMBU SUSU : Myrtaceae family


i'd come across few times when i said jambu susu...so many people doesn't know.
why i post this...because this's a rear fruit which i  think so hard to  get  nowadays.
my last time having this Jambu Susu when im 14.13 years ago...at Rembau,Negeri Sembilan.
it's very very sour ...just like plum...best to have with combination soy&chilli&sugar.
Jambu susu came from Myrtaceae family which normally u see in red /green colour in Tapah highway & very sweet & lovable.
