The fruits can be consumed raw or cooked. The fruit has an exquisitely rich flavor when it is fully ripe (almost at the point of going bad). The ripe fruit develops a very good flavor after the frost of winter. The fruit can also be harvested in the autumn, preferably after a frost, and bletted. (This is a process where the fruit is kept in a cool place and only eaten when it is very soft and again, almost at the point of going rotten).
