Prickly pear
📍 8V32+6V Cordes Lakes, AZ, USA
🗓 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.
Lots of prickly pear in the area especially on the hillsides. This is BLM land. Fruit were ripening, but npt quite ripe to perfection when I visited
