Prickly pear
🗓 Season: August · September · October
🔍 When is it ripe?
Turns from green to red, orange, or yellow depending on species. Ripe when skin gives slightly and colour is fully developed. Use tongs and burn off the tiny glochid spines with a flame or rub in sand before handling. Sweet, mild flesh.
Unsure whether on private or public property, but fruit is not harvested. Prickly pears are prickly!
