3-syllable Fruits that contain H

List of 3-syllable Fruits that contain H

1

Buddha's Hand

Citrus medica var. sarcodactylis

A bizarre yellow citrus that splits into long finger-like segments — all peel and pith with no juice or pulp, used purely for fragrance and zest.

2

Chico Fruit

Manilkara zapota

Another name for sapodilla — a small brown Mexican-Filipino fruit with grainy sweet flesh tasting of brown sugar and pear, tied to the same tree that produces chicle (chewing-gum sap).

3

Hala Fruit

Pandanus tectorius

A spectacular spiked Pacific Islander fruit that looks like a colorful pineapple-grenade hybrid — eaten fresh in some islands, used as floss thread or paint brush in others.

4

Honeydew

Cucumis melo (Inodorus group)

A pale-green melon with smooth white-yellow rind and pale-green flesh, milder and sweeter than cantaloupe — a summertime hydration fruit.

5

Nashi Pear

Pyrus pyrifolia

The Asian pear — round, apple-shaped, with golden-yellow skin and exceptionally crisp, juicy, grainy white flesh; doesn't soften like European pears but is eaten firm and crunchy, with a clean sweet flavour.

6

Physalis

Physalis peruviana

The golden berry in a papery lantern — physalis (cape gooseberry) is a small, bright orange berry enclosed in a papery husk that peels back like a Chinese lantern to reveal the sweet-sharp fruit inside; used as a decorative garnish on desserts, eaten fresh, and made into jam; not related to the gooseberry despite the name.

7

Sea Buckthorn

Hippophae rhamnoides

A thorny coastal shrub producing dense clusters of tiny bright orange berries — extraordinarily rich in vitamin C (ten times more than oranges), omega-7 fatty acids, and carotenoids; the astringent, intensely sour berries are too sharp to eat raw but make vivid orange juice, jams, and syrups popular across Northern Europe and Russia.

8

White Currant

Ribes rubrum (white-fruited variant)

A pale translucent variety of redcurrant — sweeter, less acidic, eaten fresh more than its red sibling, and once a fixture of Victorian dessert tables for its jewel-like appearance.

9

White Sapote

Casimiroa edulis

A green-skinned Mexican fruit (Casimiroa edulis) with creamy custard-like flesh and a banana-vanilla-pear flavor — citrus family relative, despite the deceptive sapote name and total lack of citrus character.
