Honey locust
🗓 Season: September · October · November
🔍 When is it ripe?
Long, flat, brown seed pods (up to 40 cm). Ripe when fully dark brown and slightly leathery. The sweet pulp between the seeds is edible raw — tastes like a mild molasses-honey. Seeds require cooking. Avoid pods from thornless cultivars (often bitter). Distinguished from black locust: honey locust pods are long and flat; black locust pods are short and thin.
